The jvmRoute's for both server.xmls are properly set to the worker names and are not commented out. This was the first thing I verified.
<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="tomcat7A"> <Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="tomcat7C"> Here are the settings in workers.properties (worker tomcat7A identical to tomcat7C except for port, since both are running on the same server for testing. In production, we will probably install them on separate boxes): worker.list=loadbalancer,jkstatus worker.tomcat7C.type=ajp13 worker.tomcat7C.host=<host_name> worker.tomcat7C.port=4931 worker.tomcat7C.lbfactor=1 worker.loadbalancer.type=lb worker.loadbalancer.balance_workers=tomcat7A,tomcat7C worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=1 worker.jkstatus.type=status Here are the JkMount settings in mod_jk.conf: JkMount /jkmanager/* jkstatus JkMount / servlet/* loadbalancer Load balancing is working, but subsequent requests from a single client are being routed to the other Tomcat instance despite sticky_session being set to 1. -----Original Message----- From: Rainer Jung [mailto:rainer.j...@kippdata.de] Sent: Friday, August 12, 2011 4:17 AM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: Re: Sticky Session Not Working With Apache 2.0.54 and Tomcat 7.0.8 On 11.08.2011 15:32, Lataxes, Karl wrote: > OK, I'm getting close.

When Tomcat sets a session cookie, and you correctly set the jvmRoute in server.xml, it automatically adds the value of jvmRoute to the end of the session id, separated with a dot. Make sure you did not set the jvmRoute in some line in server.xml that is cmmented out. To make stickyness with mod_jk happen, the jvmRoute used for Tomcat should be equal to the name of the worker pointing to the Tomcat instance. Finally you add all those workers to a load balancer worker in mod_jk and JkMount the URLs to the load balancer worker.
