I have a setup that works like this: internet->haproxy->apache->tomcat
I have been doing some experiments where the apache server is skipped, and traffic goes directly from haproxy to tomcat. These experiments have gone very well. Removing Apache from the mix would simplify things greatly. I have concluded that the only useful thing we are getting out of Apache is a logfile per virtualhost. The Apache logs are nowhere near as helpful for troubleshooting an individual problem as haproxy's log, but there are certain kinds of investigations where having a logfile for each virtualhost *IS* useful, even if it doesn't have all the info that haproxy logs. Can haproxy be configured to create multiple logfiles? Can the filename of each log be controlled easily in the haproxy config? Can I use dynamic info for the logfile name like the value in the Host header? Currently, haproxy logs to syslog, and aside from log rotation, the syslog config sends all of haproxy's logs to one logfile. The *format* of the haproxy logfile is fine as it is, except that I would like to have more than the 1024 bytes that syslog allows. Thanks, Shawn
