Greetings!
I've been running Apache web sites for years, but until now had never needed
to reference environment variables inside the configuration files. I'm trying
to set up a load balancing configuration using mod_proxy_balancer under Apache
2.2.3 (stock install under Debian Etch).
My enabled modules are:
core_module (static)
log_config_module (static)
logio_module (static)
mpm_prefork_module (static)
http_module (static)
so_module (static)
alias_module (shared)
auth_basic_module (shared)
authn_file_module (shared)
authz_default_module (shared)
authz_groupfile_module (shared)
authz_host_module (shared)
authz_user_module (shared)
autoindex_module (shared)
cgi_module (shared)
dir_module (shared)
env_module (shared)
headers_module (shared)
mime_module (shared)
negotiation_module (shared)
php4_module (shared)
proxy_module (shared)
proxy_balancer_module (shared)
proxy_connect_module (shared)
proxy_http_module (shared)
setenvif_module (shared)
status_module (shared)
userdir_module (shared)
Here is the failing part of the config file:
<VirtualHost *:8080>

ProxyPass / balancer://etr_cluster/ nofailover=On stickysession=myapp
# Uncomment the following line to disable session affinity
# ProxyPass / balancer://etr_cluster/ nofailover=off
# These lines prevent the users from seeing the canonical host in
redirections.
# CAUTION: The trailing slash is significant!
ProxyPassReverse / balancer://etr_cluster/
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.201.121:28080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.201.121:38080/
ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain 192.168.201.121 myapp.sinenomine.net
</VirtualHost>
The line "Header always add X-Server-Addr "%{SERVER_ADDR}e"" is just for
testing.
The basis for this configuration is from
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43433
When I run this, everything works fine with no errors in the log, except that
all the environment variables are replaced with "(null)" in the I/O to the
browser.
I feel I must be overlooking something obvious...anyone see what I'm doing
wrong?
Kind regards, and thanks,
Scott
