It lessens the headaches. Practically speaking, clustering Tomcat instances means session replication, which (if you ask me) does not warrant session stickiness (though session replication does take some time... I don't know enough about TC's clustering to know whether race conditions are possible or probable). For my money, I'd go for sticky sessions and no replication at all. If you really need cluster-wide session access, look to other solutions (memcached, db-backed sessions, etc.). - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk5VBagACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBM7ACeOaqKmQRe3U1/55wvDmh/qQnG IJcAnjYfmb6SZJv2fdvHEMV8BFbzH0sr =nr5Z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
