Hello, I've some questions about servlets and session management in a clustered tomcat installation:
- The servlet I've developed is really sensitive to session-consistency because it uses some extra encryption (not https), it supports many other backends (among servlet) where https may not be available. This encryption-state exists per-session. Therefor two requests at the same time with the same session will lead to a failure (but can happen because the client is multithreaded). Is there any possibility to tell tomcat that a session may used/opened only once at a time or is this done automatically? For now (one server) I simply synchronize on one lock-attribute, which does not work in a cluter of course. - Is the bea-apache plugin also capable of parsing out session-id-rewritten URLs or only session-cookies? Will this plugin try to route the same session-id to the same cluster when possible? - Do all session-attributes have to implement Serializeable? - How does tomcat now whan a mutable session-attribute has changed and needs to be sent over network? - Is there any possibility to do locking over all clusters? We have some external resources why may only be accessed one at a time, and e.g. an cluster-aware implementation of ReentrantLock would really help me. Thank you in advance, lg Clemens --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
