[users@httpd] Broken pipe: ajp_ilink_send(): send failed

[Mehta, Anish]

Hi - I have Apache 2.2.3 Web server that connects to two Tomcat 5.5.26
app servers via mod_proxy_ajp. Following is the configuration on Web
Server.

 

ProxyRequests Off

<Proxy *>

        Order deny,allow

        Allow from all

</Proxy>

 

<Proxy balancer://ampapps>

        BalancerMember ajp://<App Server1 IP>:8009 route=app1
keepalive=On timeout=300

        BalancerMember ajp://<App Server1 IP>:8009 route=app2
keepalive=On timeout=300

</Proxy>

 

<Location /amp-int>

        ProxyPass balancer://ampapps/amp-int stickysession=JSESSIONID

        ProxyPassReverse balancer://ampapps/amp-int

</Location>

 

<Location /amp>

        ProxyPass balancer://ampapps/amp stickysession=JSESSIONID

        ProxyPassReverse balancer://ampapps/amp

</Location>

 

<Location /balancer-manager>

SetHandler balancer-manager

 

Order Deny,Allow

Allow from all

</Location>

 

Earlier I had nofailover-On against ProxyPass but that seems to be
causing frequent connection timeout problems. Now with this
configuration, I get 

 

(32)Broken pipe: ajp_ilink_send(): send failed

 

It comes after some idle time and recovers after few minutes. But the
user see 503 - Server Unavailable error whenever it comes. Any help is
greatly appreciated.
