Remote deploy of [akka://Test/user/simpleActor] is not allowed, falling back to local

I have two servers:

Server1: 10.7.44.49 Server2: 10.7.44.71

and two actorSystems running on those servers:

akka://Test@10.7.44.49:5555
akka://Test@10.7.44.71:5555

I'm trying to deploy an actor from Server2 to Server1 remotely.

To achieve that, I set in the configuration of Server2:

deployment {
/simpleActor {
remote = "akka://Test@10.7.44.49:5555"
}

But I get:

[WARN] [09/07/2022 13:36:53.156] [sbt-bg-threads-1] [akka.remote.RemoteActorRefProvider] Remote deploy of [akka://Test/user/simpleActor] is not allowed, falling back to local.

I also tried to achieve it programmatically:

val address = AddressFromURIString("akka://Test@10.7.44.49:5555")
val actorRef = system.actorOf(Props[SimpleActor]().withDeploy(Deploy(scope = RemoteScope(address))))

But the result is the same.

Any clue on deploying an actor to another actorSystem running on a different machine?

That is logged in the else clause of this if:

hasClusterOrUseUnsafe && shouldCreateRemoteActorRef(system, address)

  • hasClusterOrUseUnsafe returns true if and only if one of akka.actor.provider = cluster or akka.remote.use-unsafe-remote-features-outside-cluster = true in your config

  • shouldCreateRemoteActorRef is almost certainly going to be true (unless you're using a custom RemoteActorRefProvider, in which case you're basically on your own)

So setting one of

akka.actor.provider = cluster
akka.remote.use-unsafe-remote-features-outside-cluster = true
