Hi,
After some digging through and still not able to get it work, I thought of
posting it here... Here's what I am trying to accomplish:
* Have Apache as a Loadbalancer for 2 Tomcat 6 instances - All running on
the same Linux box
* Implement the session persistence using Tomcat6 so that live sessions
could be handled by other Tomcat nodes, if one of them crashes in between.
What I am able to accomplish till now:
* Setup the load balanced servers so that *new* sessions are handled by
whichever server is active/lightly loaded.
Where I am stuck:
* Not able to have session persistent cluster.
* This scenario is not working:
- Tomcat1 and Tomcat2 are up.
- A new request comes in and Tomcat1 serves it.
- Tomcat1 crashes and the session is lost (Instead I want it to be served by
Tomcat2 as if nothing happened).
I went through the steps mentioned here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/cluster-howto.html (which is exactly
did you put <distributable/> in your XML?
what I am trying to achieve). But when I kill the active server, the session
is lost..
what do your tomcat logs say?
In index.jsp, I am extending the Session so that it can be serialized...
And, I am creating an instance so that I can use a serializable session for
session-persistence.
why are you doing this, it wont change the behavior of your system.
It's the session attributes that have to be serializable
Filip
class PersistentSession implements javax.servlet.http.HttpSession,
java.io.Serializable {
private javax.servlet.http.HttpSession httpSession;
protected PersistentSession()
{
httpSession = null;
}
// All necessary methods overridden
...
}
// Check "perSession" served from both tomcat instances...
PersistentSession perSession = new PersistentSession(request.getSession());
Here's the server.xml files from both the tomcat instances... Can anyone
tell me what am I missing in order to run persistent sessions?
