Greetings, Using Squid as an accelerator with an Apache Light and an Apache Heavy (mod-perl) server. Now trying to at load balancing via the redirect.pl script for http://mako.nrlmry.navy.mil/tc-bin/tc_home Doesn't work. While the redirect does change the URL, whenever it changes it to sgi-demo.nrlmry.navy.mil:8888 I get a Squid generated error page which says "The requested URL Could not be retrieved While trying to retrieve the URL: http://sgi-demo.nrlmry.navy.mil:8888/tc-bin/tc_display The following error was encountered: * Connection Failed The system returned: (126) Cannot assign requested address The remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again" Funny thing is that the server is UP and that when I click on the hyperlink Squid says it can't connect to it comes up fine. Does anyone have any suggestions? (Good, Bad or Ugly) Here is my redirect.pl script: #!/users/webuser/perl/bin/perl $| = 1; # Testing switching between two servers my(@HEAVY) = qw{sgi-demo.nrlmry.navy.mil 127.0.0.1}; my($i,$j) = 0; while(<>){ if ($_ =~ /sat-bin|tc-bin/){ my($value) = $HEAVY[rand(@HEAVY)]; # Rotate servers s%127\.0\.0\.1(:\d+)?%$value%; # Specify heavy mod_perl server for cgi scripts s%(:\d+)?/sat-bin%:8888/sat-bin%i && next; s%(\:\d+)?/tc-bin%:8888/tc-bin%i && next; } } continue { print LOG "$$ > $_\n"; print; # falls through to apache_light } John Kent (831) 656-4890 Monterey, CA
