Hi all,
Having to deal with slow applications deployed under tomcat, with a
reverse proxy in front, frequently i've noticed that even when the
frontend timeouts and closes it's part of the TCP connection, the
Tomcat
thread processing the request goes on and on till it finishes. Is
there
a way to make the proccessing thread stop when the frontend connection
get's closed?
No.
Any hints on how to deal with situations like this?
This is basically an issue similar to the one that is the subject of
the other message thread "Re: Is it possible to send a 'keep-alive'
packet back to client session every x seconds?".
Not exactly, it's the opposite scenario, the load balancer and the
firewall / NAT part is fine. Probably my english is a bit poor. What i
wanted to acchieve is, without having the possibility to modify the
webapp, when the uplink request (this can be mod_jk/apache or user's
browser, whatever calls the application) timeouts to find a way to stop
the tomcat / webapp proccessing thread. Though from Mark's reply i
understand that this is not possible with tomcat. So, at this point,
having to deal with such webapps, is there some common solution?
My problem is that the failover mecchanism (mod_jk in my case) during
peak usage amplifies the load on the application servers, it's a spiral
of death :-)
How do you guys deal with this situations?
AFAIK, the only portable way to detect this situation, is by forcing
the web application to regularly send some output to the client. If
the connection has been closed, it will then (*) get an exception,
which it can handle.
in mod_jk cping/cpong, or the TCP stack (keepalive tcp). But is not my
scenario unfortunately.
Anyway, thanks for your reply!
It implies that the webapp itself is not blocked waiting on some
separate resource, and can regularly break out of its own main
processing to send such output, resuming its main work if the result
is ok.
(*) with possibly some delay before everything gets flushed all the
way to the client connection, and the disconnected state makes its way
back up the chain.
