Hi, We are facing a problem with respect to load balancing using mod_jk. I surfed through various mailing lists and otehr websites for a couple of days but could find nothing that could help me resolve the issue. I got your mail id from one of these archives and that is why I am sending you this email. The scenario is as follows: We have one Apache server (2.0.55) and two Jboss servers (jboss-4.0.3SP1). One of the Jboss instances is on the same server that has the Apache. The setup is on AIX machines. We have done the necessary configuration required to have the load balancing in place but when we do a load test the load is going to only one server (incidently it is the same server that also runs the apache server). If I shutdown this instance oif JBoss, then the load goes to the other server. The version of mod_jk that we are using is: 1.2.15 The contents from relevant files are mentioned below. Pls could you have a look and let me know what is it that I am missing. Thanks and regards Sanjeev workers.properties # Define list of workers that will be used # for mapping requests worker.list=loadbalancer,status #worker.list=node1 # Define Node1 # modify the host as your host IP or DNS name. worker.node1.port=8009 worker.node1.host=168.146.16.215 worker.node1.type=ajp13 worker.node1.lbfactor=1 worker.node1.cachesize=10 # Define Node2 # modify the host as your host IP or DNS name. worker.node2.port=8009 worker.node2.host=168.146.16.214 worker.node2.type=ajp13 worker.node2.lbfactor=1 worker.node2.cachesize=10 # Load-balancing behaviour worker.loadbalancer.type=lb worker.loadbalancer.balance_workers=node1,node2 worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=1 # Status worker for managing load balancer worker.status.type=status
