Infinite waiting time on cluster creation

[Akmal Abbasov]

Hi, I am trying to create a redis cluster in 2 VMs. I am using vagrant to manage VMs. 

I am using redis-3.0.2, Ubuntu 14.04.2, Ruby 2.0.0p384.

I have 3 instances on each VM. I am using the following directory hierarchy to keep each instance data

cluster-nodes/
|-- 7001
|   |-- db01
|   |  -- nodes-7001.conf
|    -- redis.conf
|-- 7002
|   |-- db02
|   |   -- nodes-7002.conf
|    -- redis.conf
 -- 7003
    |-- db03
    |   -- nodes-.conf
     -- redis.conf

Here is my config file redis.conf under the 7001 directory

pidfile /var/run/redis/redis-7001.pid
port 7001
dir /opt/redis/cluster-nodes/7001/db01/
cluster-enabled yes
cluster-config-file nodes-7001.conf
cluster-node-timeout 15000

When I try to start redis I get

./redis-trib.rb create --replicas 1 127.0.0.1:7001 127.0.0.1:7002 127.0.0.1:7003 192.168.56.41:7007 192.168.56.41:7008 192.168.56.41:7009

Can I set the above configuration? (type 'yes' to accept): yes
>>> Nodes configuration updated
>>> Assign a different config epoch to each node
>>> Sending CLUSTER MEET messages to join the cluster
Waiting for the cluster to join.....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................^C./redis-trib.rb:534:in `sleep': Interrupt

    from ./redis-trib.rb:1007:in `create_cluster_cmd'
    from ./redis-trib.rb:1373:in `<main>'

I've checked that both 700x and 1700x ports are listening

I also added rules to the firewall

But still when I am trying to start a cluster, I get an infinite waiting time to join.

Is there something I am doing not correctly?

Thank you.
