I have Apache 2.x and Tomcat 5.5 connected using mod_jk ajp13 workers (win32) and running fine. However, under heavy load (using jmeter) I start to get mod_jk errors indicating that the connection is closed and is unable to be reopened. This essentially results in a dead server for a while.
The question regarding this is two-part: 1. All connector docs indicate that a jni worker can be defined that will allow Tomcat to be run under the Apache memory space and enhance communications between the two without using sockets. This sounds great, but the bugzilla report (http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35378#c2) indicates that the jni worker has been deprecated for some time. The docs don't say anything about this and the change log shows nothing, yet it appears to be true. Why is the jni worker deprecated and in favor of what? Is ajp13 the better route to go then (the method that I'm already using)? Is there another method of running Tomcat and Apache under one memory allocation? 2. If I am to remain using ajp13 then I need to solve my communication problem between Apache and Tomcat. The docs explain a bit about the various configuration options, but it seems apparent that the author speaks English as a second language and I'm not quite clear on how to go about ensuring that I have an ideal configuration. Any specific tips on this? For reference, my site is running on multiple, balanced Win 2003 servers, I have around 9000 users and peak at about 200 concurrent users. I beging to experience jmeter troubles only a few minutes into a test configured for 75 concurrent users, so I have a long way to go before I'm production-ready (this is a new hardware config replacing a legacy site). I'm ok with expanding my farm if needed, but feel that I should be able to drive my servers harder than I have been able to before ajp fails. Anybody have any help on this?
