Only through the use of context roots, which let you map specific instances to specific URL patterns. ============== Ok, can someone please explain to me exactly what a context root is (or supply some documentation). I keep hearing that term over and over in everything I read, but I must say I don't really know exactly what it is. Is it part of the web server? ColdFusion? JRun? All Java Apps? How do I set it? Where it is defined? (xml config file...) How exactly would one "map a specific instance to a URL pattern"? I have run into the exact same question here. I have suspected the sticky connections of our current load-balancer have kept our traffic of evening out when everyone gets stuck to one server, so I was very excited to replicate sessions and let users unfasten their seatbelts and wander about the web servers as they pleased. Right off the bat-- big problem. CF charts don't work, since they generate a link to a dynamic image which is sent to the web server as a separate HTTP request and gets round robined off to a DIFFERENT web server which gives me a big, fat, 404 (or image expired). Same problem, if I want to copy a file off a file server to the web server and then redirect the user to that file. No can do, if they are skipping from one server to the other! What the heck? Please don't tell me that the only way I can use cfchart is to enable sticky session. Is there a way to set a sticky age? If I could just keep the user stuck to one server for 1 minute at a time, that would give them time for the whole page to load its charts etc?
