I am trying to set up simple load balancing between Apache and two Tomcat
instances, but am having problems with sticky sessions.
I get thrown back and forth between the instances on each request. (I put a
note at the top of the page on each instance to distinguish where the page
has been served from and each request sends me back to the other server. I
see "instance 1" at the top of the page, then refresh and see instance 2,
then refresh and see instance 1 again, etc)
My Apache Virtual Host:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat
6.0/sites/foo/ROOT/"
ServerName foo.com
ServerAlias www.foo.com
DirectoryIndex index.php
<Directory "C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat
6.0/sites/foo/ROOT/">
Allow from all
</Directory>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPassReverse / ajp://192.168.1.2:8009/
ProxyPassReverse / ajp://192.168.1.3:8009/
ProxyPass / balancer://mycluster stickysession=JSESSIONID|jsessionid
nofailover=Off
ProxyPass /balancer-manager !
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ balancer://mycluster/$1 [P,L,R]
<Proxy balancer://mycluster>
BalancerMember ajp://192.168.1.2:8009/ route=jvm1 loadfactor=50
BalancerMember ajp://192.168.1.3:8009/ route=jvm2 loadfactor=50
ProxySet lbmethod=byrequests
</Proxy>
<Location /balancer-manager>
SetHandler balancer-manager
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
My two Tomcat instances are set up as:
<Engine name="Standalone" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="jvm1">
and
<Engine name="Standalone" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="jvm2">
Basically, what I want to happen is when I type in http://foo.com in the
browser I am taken to jvm1 instance, when I type the same thing in another
browser (new session) I am taken to jvm2 instance.
Then, everytime I visit any page on foo.com from either browser, I am always
served from the original instance I was assigned.
Any help?
Thanks!!!
