please take some more time to describe your setup. Two nodes? No lode balancing? No virtual IPs or anything?

What are the logs on the other node showing (the log message indicates this node is not a master node either, but there should be a reason why this is the case).

Please take the time to properly format your messages. You can use markdown here which has excellent support for code snippets.

the logs files from both nodes are still missing.
