I'm hoping that someone here can tell me if this configuration looks
sane, or at least in line with what others are using. I am running
Apache 1.3.33, mod_jk 1.2.15 and tomcat 5.0.28. The apache and each
tomcat are running on separate RedHat ES release 4 machines (so 3 boxes
total). I'm pretty unsure of the settings in the workers.properties
file versus the settings in the tomcat server.xml file. Specifically
regarding the timeouts. I thought that this configuration would really
do the trick, but the system freaked out and locked up again this
morning. "Freaked out and Locked Up" means that the number of sockets
open from the Apache to the tomcats skyrockets (300+, up from an average
of 50 each), and all the apache requests get stuck in the "W" state
(from the /server-status/ page). All machines are on the same subnet,
with no firewalls in between.
Any comments, ideas, thoughts, or chants of "no whammies" would be
greatly appreciated. Even if this all looks very sane, please let me
know, so I can feel that I got this (relatively) right and start
investigating elsewhere for the problem. Thanks.
