By the way, the Apache server and my application run on Windows Server 2003.

Thanks for all the replies about this question. But I still can not know if it could be solved by tuning the attributes in worker.properties. I read that doc carefully and make some changes to the worker.proerties. There is no improvement. It seems that mod_jk try to establish a TCP connection to the master and failed by timeout (about one minute). Then it forwards the request to the salve/backup machine. The following is the content of worker.properties. # Define list of workers that will be used # for mapping requests worker.list=loadbalancer,status # Define Master worker.master.host=192.168.225.195 worker.master.port=8009 worker.master.type=ajp13 worker.master.lbfactor=1 #socket timeout in seconds worker.master.socket_timeout=5 worker.master.prepost_timeout=250 worker.master.connect_timeout=500 worker.master.recovery_options=3 # Define prefered failover node for master worker.master.redirect=slave # Define Slave worker.slave.host= 192.168.225.116 worker.slave.port=8009 worker.slave.type=ajp13 worker.slave.lbfactor=1 #socket timeout in seconds worker.slave.socket_timeout=5 worker.slave.prepost_timeout=250 worker.slave.connect_timeout=500 worker.slave.recovery_options=3 #Disable slave for all requests except failover worker.slave.activation=d # Load-balancing behaviour worker.loadbalancer.type=lb worker.loadbalancer.balance_workers=master, slave worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=1 # Status worker for managing load balancer worker.status.type=status -----Original Message----- From: Rainer Jung [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2007 10:24 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: why does mod_jk still try to send the request to a shutdown machine? Have a look at http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/generic_howto/timeouts.html You could lower you prepost_timeout. The Timeouts will help for unplanned downtimes. For planned downtimes you should administratively change the activation attribute of the load balancer members.
