OK it's just a minor problem. You have to use a lower-case "s" : 60s. It's stupid that the parser did not catch this mistake. I should improve it. By default, it ignores unknown chars, you you clearly had 60 ms here. BTW, there's no use in setting large contimeouts. You should usually stay with lower values such as 5-10s. Oh BTW, what version are you running ? Your stats page looks old. The time units were introduced in 1.3.14, so I hope you're at least at this level. > I'm using roundrobin and adding the httpclose option.

Then it is possible that haproxy could not manage to connect to your server in 60ms, then immediately retried on the other one, and sticked to that one. Regards, Willy
