keeping same session via apache2 mod_jk2 and tomcat5
Hiya all tried to answer back to my last post but it kept timing out maybe it was too long - anyways I just wondered if there was anything else i can try :( If port 8180 keeps the sessions but port 80 keeps recycling sessions surely it must be an issue with mod_jk I have also tried mod_jk2 and had the same issues in the past - the mod_jk and mod_jk2 were both debian packages installed via dselect. Thanks vahid
Re: keeping same session via apache2 mod_jk2 and tomcat5
Hi all I had as a test used seperate engines for each virtual host but instead it loaded up one of the virtual hosts on both and the site that had the wrong virtual host loaded up seemed to keep the session ID . Anyhow here are the configs. The first 2 is what is currently running the last 2 are what i tried as seperate engines. __ current server.xml Server port=8005 shutdown=SHUTDOWN debug=0 Listener className=org.apache.jk.config.ApacheConfig modJk=/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_jk.so WorkersConfig=/etc/apache2/workers.properties / Listener className=org.apache.catalina.mbeans.ServerLifecycleListener debug=0/ Listener className= org.apache.catalina.mbeans.GlobalResourcesLifecycleListener debug=0/ !-- Global JNDI resources -- GlobalNamingResources !-- Test entry for demonstration purposes -- Environment name=simpleValue type=java.lang.Integer value=30/ !-- Editable user database that can also be used by UserDatabaseRealm to authenticate users -- Resource name=UserDatabase auth=Container type=org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase description=User database that can be updated and saved /Resource ResourceParams name=UserDatabase parameter namefactory/name valueorg.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory/value /parameter parameter namepathname/name valueconf/tomcat-users.xml/value /parameter /ResourceParams /GlobalNamingResources !-- Define the Tomcat Stand-Alone Service -- Service name=Catalina !-- Define a non-SSL Coyote HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8180 -- Connector className=org.apache.coyote.tomcat5.CoyoteConnector port=8180 minProcessors=5 maxProcessors=75 enableLookups=false acceptCount=10 debug=0 connectionTimeout=2 useURIValidationHack=false / !-- Define a Coyote/JK2 AJP 1.3 Connector on port 8009 -- Connector className=org.apache.coyote.tomcat5.CoyoteConnector port=8009 minProcessors=5 maxProcessors=75 protocol=AJP/1.3 enableLookups=false acceptCount=10 debug=0 connectionTimeout=2 useURIValidationHack=false protocolHandlerClassName= org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandler/ Engine name=Catalina defaultHost=localhost debug=0 jvmRoute=worker1 Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger prefix=catalina_ suffix=.log timestamp=true/ Realm className=org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm debug=0 resourceName=UserDatabase/ DefaultContext reloadable=true debug=4/ Host name=localhost debug=0 appBase=webapps unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger directory=logs prefix=localhost_ suffix=.log timestamp=true/ /Host Host name=www.greenlightproductions.co.uk debug=0 appBase=/apache_sites/servlets/ unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true Context path=/servlets docBase=greenlight debug=0 reloadable=true/ parameter namedriverClassName/name valueorg.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver/value /parameter Valve className=org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve directory=logs prefix=green_log. suffix=.txt pattern=common resolveHosts=true/ /Host Host name=www.pro.org.uk debug=0 appBase=/apache_sites/servlets/ unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true Context path=/vahidservlets docBase=vservlets debug=0 reloadable=true/ Context path=/servlets docBase=vservlets debug=0 reloadable=true/ parameter namedriverClassName/name valueorg.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver/value /parameter Valve className=org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve directory=logs prefix=pro_log. suffix=.txt pattern=common resolveHosts=true/ /Host /Engine /Service /Server ___ current workers.properties. workers.tomcat_home=/var/lib/tomcat5 workers.java_home=/usr/bin/java ps=/ worker.list=worker1,worker2,worker3 # Definition for local worker using AJP 1.3 # #worker.foo.type=ajp13 #worker.foo.host=www.pro.org.uk #worker.foo.port=8009 #worker.foo.cachesize=20 worker.balancer.sticky_session=true [uri:www.pro.org.uk/servlets/*] worker.worker1.balancer.sticky_session=true worker.worker1.tomcatId=worker1 #worker.foo=ajp13:www.pro.org.uk:8009 worker.worker1.type=ajp13 worker.worker1.host=localhost worker.worker1.port=8009 worker.worker1.lbfactor=50 worker.worker1.cachesize=10 worker.worker1.cache_timeout=600 worker.worker1.socket_keepalive=1 worker.worker1.reclycle_timeout=300 [uri:www.greenlightproductions.co.uk/servlets/*] worker.worker2.tomcatId=worker2 worker.worker2.balancer.sticky_session=true #worker.foo=ajp13:www.pro.org.uk:8009 worker.worker2.type=ajp13 worker.worker2.host=localhost worker.worker2.port=8009 worker.worker2.lbfactor=50 worker.worker2.cachesize=10
Re: keeping same session via apache2 mod_jk2 and tomcat5
ok this is where it starts to get bizzare... http://www.greenlightproductions.co.uk/servlets/SessionExample This now works (as in it is keeping the same session ID ) but it is showing the wrong servlets folder (as in for wrong virtual host and showing the tomcatid of that virtual host) Since below is a servlet for the host in question http://www.greenlightproductions.co.uk/servlets/GreenLight but it shows servlets setup for pro.org.uk http://www.greenlightproductions.co.uk/servlets/ContactMe http://www.pro.org.uk/servlets/ContactMe in server.xml i have setup unique engines.

Ok..
I am now using mo_jk rather than mod_jk2 and sessions still keeps changing

This still changes session ID

This doesnt :(
Can anyone tell me why this is happening ?

Is there anything specific to the way modjk was configured on your
apache ?
This is what I have in my httpd.conf (before document root defination)

JkWorkersFile /jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9/conf/workers.properties
JkLogFile /var/log/httpd/mod_jk.log

JkMount /servlets-examples/* worker1

And my workers.properties file is this

worker.worker1.host=localhost
worker.worker1.port=8009
worker.worker1.lbfactor=50

Hope that helps
FYI I'm using tomcat 5.5.9 and apache httpd 1.3.26

I know this isn't the exact answer you are looking for but I'm
using mod_jk (mod_jk2 is no longer supported) and I do not have
this problem.
