Memcache/Membase configuration failing with "Failed to initialize the pool. - System.FormatException: An invalid IP address was specified'

I have membase server setup, and am successfully using a memcache bucket, but I can't get a membase bucket to work.

My config is simple

<membase>
<servers bucket="membase" retryCount="3">
  <add uri="http://192.168.1.250:8091/pools/default" />
</servers>

Same setup is working fine with memcache running off the membase server.

I'm not sure about the pools/default bit, as there's no mention of that in the membase gui, but all the docs say to use it.

The full diagnostics log is

Solution

  • Ok, changing ip address' is an issue with couchbase.
