Running both Initiator and Acceptor in Openshift

[DeonBoon]

Hi! Thank for this awesome project and I have a few questions to ask regarding the running of both Initiator and Acceptor in Openshift/Kubernetes environments.

I have developed the Initiator and Acceptor and they are able to communicate and send messages back and forth locally using this configuration:

Initiator
SocketConnectPort=15000
SocketConnectHost=localhost

Acceptor
SocketAcceptPort=15000

When running in Openshift, I have created the routes for my acceptor for both HTTP and HTTPS traffic with port forwarding pointing to 15000 in my acceptor service with these sets of configurations:

#HTTP 
Initiator
SocketConnectPort=80
SocketConnectHost=openshift.com

Acceptor
SocketAcceptPort=15000

#HTTPS
Initiator
SocketConnectPort=443
SocketConnectHost=openshift2.com

Acceptor
SocketAcceptPort=15000

I ran the above configurations separately but both encountered these errors:

Initiator -> IO Exception, Disconnecting, END_OF_STREAM
Acceptor -> Connection reset by peer

However, If i configure my initiator to point directly to the acceptor service instead of openshift route, the connection is able to establish successfully.

Initiator
SocketConnectPort=15000
SocketConnectHost=acceptor

May I ask if anyone has any idea what should be the correct configuration for the routes?

I am not familiar with OpenShift but it sounds like a route will only accept HTTP(S) traffic. But without wrapping FIX into HTTP it probably won't work. Maybe you could try the http proxy configuration options?
