Hello, I have been trying for weeks now to get this to work. Maybe someone can help me. I have Apache2 installed and configured in machine A, using mod_jk to connect to two tomcat servers. Tomcat1 is in machine B and Tomcat2 in machine A. I have created a workers.properties file, which I have put in the apache "conf". This file specifies workers timcat1 and tomcat2, as well as worker loadbalancer, which is supposed to balance the load between the two tomcats. Everything works fine, except for the sticky sessions, or session affinity. When a page is requested, I need it to be served from one of the available tomcat servers, and then each time the page is requested subsequently from the same machine, it should be served from the same tomcat server as before. It doesn't seem to work. Each time I refresh the page, it get served from the same tomcat a couple of times, then it gets served from the other tomcat, stays on that tomcat a couple of refresh hits and then swiches again. I can't see a pattern or figure out why this is happening. Here's my workers.properties file: # # workers.properties #
# In Windows, we use backward slashes: ps=\ # list the workers by name worker.list=loadbalancer # ------------------------ # First tomcat server # ------------------------ worker.tomcat1.port=8009 worker.tomcat1.host=<machine B's IP> worker.tomcat1.type=ajp13 # Specify the size of the open connection cache. #worker.tomcat1.cachesize # # Specifies the load balance factor when used with # a load balancing worker. # Note: # ----> lbfactor must be > 0 # ----> Low lbfactor means less work done by the worker. worker.tomcat1.lbfactor=100 # ------------------------ # Second tomcat server # ------------------------ worker.tomcat2.port=8009 worker.tomcat2.host=<machine A's IP> worker.tomcat2.type=ajp13 # Specify the size of the open connection cache. #worker.tomcat2.cachesize # # Specifies the load balance factor when used with # a load balancing worker. # Note: # ----> lbfactor must be > 0 # ----> Low lbfactor means less work done by the worker. worker.tomcat2.lbfactor=100 # ------------------------ # Load Balancer worker # ------------------------ # # The loadbalancer (type lb) worker performs weighted round-robin # load balancing with sticky sessions. # Note: # ----> If a worker dies, the load balancer will check its state # once in a while. Until then all work is redirected to peer # worker. worker.loadbalancer.type=lb worker.loadbalancer.balanced_workers=tomcat1,tomcat2 worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=True # # END workers.properties # In httpd.conf, I have added: JkWorkersFile "conf/workers.properties" JkLogFile "logs/mod_jk.log" JkLogLevel debug <some JkMount lines> LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so In server.xml, I've set jvmRoute="tomcat1" (tomcat2 on the other tomcat's server.xml) I can't think of any other infomation that you may find helpful. If anyone has any idea, or any question, I really need help on this. Anything would be much appreciated. Thanks, Edlira __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
