Hi,
I'm having another issue with HAProxy (v1.4.22). This time related to cookies
that HAProxy sets for persistance.
When I run a load test with JMeter I have noticed that some, but not all, new
threads receive a Set-Cookie header.
I'm thinking that this might be due to that I'm also using a sticky-table to
maintain session stickiness on source IP address potentially rendering the
cookie redundant, but I am not sure. (I have to stick on source IP since not
all clients support cookies and session state needs to be maintained for each
client). During the load tests with JMeter, I am relying on the set-cookie
header to monitor and verify which thread gets routed to which server during
the test.
The relevant parts of the config file is included below.
Thanks for any advice!
