Hi,
I' ve try to use Tomcat 5.5.15 in cluster mod. And after some work on
configuration and test
i seems to be on limit of my all possibilities ;)
I try to use two tomcat in cluster with apache web server and
mod_jk as
connector.
my Apache configuration look like :
# workers.properties
ps=/
# List the workers name
worker.list=loadbalancer
# ----------------
# First worker
# ----------------
worker.node01.port=8009
worker.node01.host=agnes
worker.node01.type=ajp13
worker.node01.lbfactor=1
#worker.node01.domain=cluster1
# ----------------
# Second worker
# ----------------
worker.node02.port=9009
worker.node02.host=ovea-inspiron
worker.node02.type=ajp13
worker.node02.lbfactor=1
#worker.node02.domain=cluster1
# ----------------------
# Load Balancer worker
# ----------------------
worker.loadbalancer.type=lb
worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=false
worker.loadbalancer.balanced_workers=node01,node02
As you can see i use two server ('agnes' IP : 192.168.2.102 and
'ovea-inspiron' IP : 192.168.2.103)
I' ve coded a little aplication who read un file and create a
sessions if
session not exist.
If i use the system in mod load balancing (with no cluster mod
activate)
all is great (my config is of course
worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=true
)
So system run with session affinitu but the two server are
accessible ;)
Now i try to configure as cluster mode with session replication
(my config is now worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=3Dfalse)
I configure my to server.xml like that :

I'm user linux so i've compiled my kernel with multicat kernel option
I add the rout like rooute add -host 224.0.0.1 dev eth0
N.B : why 224.0.0.1 => http://www.iana.org/assignments/multicast-
addresses
So route is :
ALL-SYSTEMS.MCA * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0
0 0
eth0
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0
0 lo
default . 0.0.0.0 UG
0 0
0 eth0
now i start the two tomcat with the same application in webapp
directories
with tcpdump i verify the multicasting btewen my server .. so :
19:39:17.809978 IP 192.168.2.102.45564 > all-systems.mcast.net.

So all semms to be OK but i've

As you can see in the last line cluster member are not found !!!!
What's the hell ;)
When i test my application i've always the sequences :
This page is rendered on server : *Cluster Node - 01 (One) New
session is
created with saved value ....UserId : 123456
This page is rendered on server : *Cluster Node - 02 (Two) New
session is
created with saved value ....UserId : 123456
This page is rendered on server : *Cluster Node - 01 (One) New
session is
created with saved value ....UserId : 123456
So the request is well balanced but a new session is alway
created !!!!!
Some ideas ...
Thank you guys
