When adding a server dynamically, we observe that when a backend has a dynamic persistence cookie, the new server has no cookie as we receive the following HTTP header: set-cookie: test-cookie=; Expires=Thu, 01-Jan-1970 00:00:01 GMT; path=/ Whereas we were expecting to receive something like the following, which is what we receive for a server added in the config file: set-cookie: test-cookie=abcdef1234567890; path=/
After investigating code path, it seems srv_set_dyncookie() is never called when adding a server through CLI, it is only called when parsing config file or using "set server bkd1/srv1 addr". To fix this, add a call to srv_set_dyncookie() inside _srv_parse_init() which is used on the dynamic server initialization path. --- src/server.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/server.c b/src/server.c index e22b33806..c954a8de3 100644 --- a/src/server.c +++ b/src/server.c @@ -3306,7 +3306,9 @@ static int _srv_parse_init(struct server **srv, char **args, int *cur_arg, /* * we don't need to lock the server here, because * we are in the process of initializing. - * + */ + srv_set_dyncookie(newsrv); + /* * Note that the server is not attached into the proxy tree if * this is a dynamic server. */ -- 2.34.1
