So we have 2 webservers on the backend with SSL encryption.
We want to keep this the way it is.
Is there a way for HAPROXY to balance these 2 servers with sticky
sessions enabled?
how can this be done?
Currently when trying it this way;
defaults
log global
mode http
option httplog
option dontlognull
retries 3
option redispatch
maxconn 2000
contimeout 5000
clitimeout 50000
srvtimeout 50000
stats enable
stats uri /stats
frontend http-in
bind *:80
acl is_ww2_test1_com hdr_end(host) -i ww2.test1.com
use_backend ww2_test1_com if is_ww2_test1_com
backend ww2_test1_com
balance roundrobin
cookie SERVERID insert nocache indirect
option httpchk
option httpclose
option forwardfor
server Server1 10.10.10.11:80 cookie Server1
server Server1 10.10.10.12:80 cookie Server2
Since the 2 servers are encrypted on port 443 (with the main front
page on port 80 not encrypted),
the above setup works until it hits 443 where i get the error
"Error 310 (net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS): There were too many
redirects.".
Port 443 on the HAPROXY frontend is using Pound for the encryption.
However both backend servers have a Tomcat Keystore (signed through
thawte) which I doubt will be compatable with Pound. (and I don't
want to resign the cert or get a new cert)
Can I somehow get HAPROXY to balance these 2 servers with proper
sticky session handling?
TIA!
