     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CURATOR-573?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Viniti reopened CURATOR-573:
----------------------------

Updated the code for clarification

> No leader is getting selected intermittently
> --------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: CURATOR-573
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CURATOR-573
>             Project: Apache Curator
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Apache, Framework, Recipes
>    Affects Versions: 4.0.1
>            Reporter: Viniti
>            Priority: Critical
>
> I am using Apache Curator Leader Election Recipe : https://curator.apache.org/curator-recipes/leader-election.html in my application.
> Zookeeper version : 3.5.7
> Curator : 4.0.1
> Below are the sequence of steps:
> 1. Whenever my tomcat server instance is getting up, I create a single CuratorFramework instance(single instance per tomcat server) and start it : 
> {code:title=StartUp Code|borderStyle=solid}
> CuratorFramework client = CuratorFrameworkFactory.newClient(connectionString, retryPolicy);
> client.start();
> if(!client.blockUntilConnected(10, TimeUnit.MINUTES)){
>  LOGGER.error("Zookeeper connection could not establish!");
>  throw new RuntimeException("Zookeeper connection could not establish");
> }
> {code}
> 2. Create an instance of LSAdapter and start it:
> {code:title=LSAdapter initializing|borderStyle=solid}
> LSAdapter adapter = new LSAdapter(client, <some_metadata>);
> adapter.start();
> {code}
> Below is my LSAdapter class :
> {code:title=LSAdapter.java|borderStyle=solid}
> public class LSAdapter extends LeaderSelectorListenerAdapter implements Closeable {
> //<Class instance variables defined>
>  public LSAdapter(CuratorFramework client, <some_metadata>) {
>  leaderSelector = new LeaderSelector(client, <path_to_be_used_for_leader_election>, this);
>  leaderSelector.autoRequeue();
>  }
> public void start() throws IOException {
>  leaderSelector.start();
>  }
> @Override
>  public void close() throws IOException {
>  leaderSelector.close();
>  }
> @Override
>  public void takeLeadership(CuratorFramework client) throws Exception {
>  final int waitSeconds = (int) (5 * Math.random()) + 1;
> LOGGER.info(name + " is now the leader. Waiting " + waitSeconds + " seconds...");
>  LOGGER.debug(name + " has been leader " + leaderCount.getAndIncrement() + " time(s) before.");
>  while (true) {
>  try {
>  Thread.sleep(TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(waitSeconds));
>  //do leader tasks
>  } catch (InterruptedException e) {
>  LOGGER.error(name + " was interrupted.");
>  //cleanup
> /*Here, code is creating a znode. If client 's current state is CLOSED, this line will throw exception resulting in takeLeadership() exit. Else if, client state is STARTED, znode should be created. In case when LSAdaptor.close() is called, the client state will always be CLOSED at this line, and an exception is expected to be thrown.*/
> //This line will always throw exception when client state is "CLOSED" and because of which takeLeadership will exit
> ZookeeperUtil.createEphemeral(client, <some_path>);
> Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
>  } finally {
> }
>  }
>  }
> }
> {code}
> 4. When server instance is getting down, close LSAdapter instance(which application is using) and close CuratorFramework client created
> {code:title=PreDestroy code|borderStyle=solid}
> CloseableUtils.closeQuietly(lsAdapter);
> curatorFrameworkClient.close();
> {code}
> The issue I am facing is that at times, when server is restarted, no leader gets elected. I checked that by tracing the log inside takeLeadership(). I have two tomcat server instances with above code, connecting to same zookeeper quorum and most of the times one of the instance becomes leader but when this issue happens, both of them becomes follower. Please suggest what am I doing wrong.
