1) As far as I know, no, mod_jk does not read workers.properties dynamically. 2) Yes and no, it will not send a request unless communication has been established with the worker, it may happen that the worker fails, or someone shut it down. Depending on how you configure the workers and the number of workers, it can retry the request and/or try a different worker. Mod_jk will mark the worker on error when it does not respond, and it will try again after a configurable time -but it tries again with an actual request-.

Does apache read worker.properties dynamically? So if I change worker.property would it be dynamically read by mod_jk. 2. Does mod_jk check if the system is up and running before forwarding that request to the server configured in worker.properties file? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
