[users@httpd] keep-alive and proxy_ajp

[Peng, Thierry]

Hi

 

I have a question concerning mod_proxy_ajp and the keep-alive mechanism.


Our setup is: client (web via https) - firewall - apache 2.2.4 -
firewall - JBoss 4.0.5

 

After a certain timeout, defined in the firewall, the connection will be
dropped. 

 

my htpd-ssl.conf (snippet)

 

<Location /sbtcc>

        SSLOptions +StdEnvVars +ExportCertData

        ProxyPass ajp://xxxx

        ProxyPassReverse ajp://xxx

        SSLVerifyClient require

        SSLVerifyDepth 5

        SetEnv proxy-keepalive 1

        SetEnv proxy-ping 1

        Order Deny,Allow

        Allow from all

</Location>

I thougth, that the proxy-keepalive set to one would work, but it
doesn't.

How can i enforce the keepalive with ajp between apache and jboss ?

 

Thanks in advance
