I'm running Apache 2.0.45 with self compiled mod_jk (version jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.0.4). It is supposed to load-balance between two jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4, one on the localhost and another on a remote machine. Both machines are HP-UX 11.00. JDK is 1.3.1 and the Apache is a HP bundle (except for the self-compiled mod_jk, as I said).
I require that the server loadbalances requests with sticky session as I need the users to remain on the same server throughout their transactions.
The problem I'm having is that instead of having a 50%/50% load distribution amongst the two tomcats (Tomcat1 and Tomcat2), I have a 10%/90% distribution. This is causing disruptive behaviour on the tomcat2 server as it does not handle the load on peek hours.
Bellow is a stripped version of my workers.properties (stripped of comments and with the 2nd machine name changed).
Please help me solve this. Request any other information if necessary. By the way... Upgrading Tomcat/Connectors is planned just for in 4 months or so. It is very burochratic and it takes very long to upgrade anything, so... Upgrading components will not be the best solution, unfortunatly (I had to wait 2 months for a Apache upgrade from 2.0.39 to 2.0.45... 2 months and a lot of mails and documents).
Many thanks for your attention.
