Does it give a unique failure code? This is actually the use case that drove me to add the failonstatus option for ProxySet. For example, some containers return a 503 when the app is not yet initialized but the container is up. Granted, you will still have one failed connection per every X retry seconds, but in high-volume sites a few failures is much more appetizing than hundreds. -- Daniel Ruggeri --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org
