Re: Help: how to configure multiple apache servers behind a hardware load balancer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Thanks, Krist.  I thought that it should work in
theory too, but it doesn't in practice :(  Basically,
about 10% of requests to www.mydomain.com fail (time
out) if I set the servernames to www.mydomain.com for
both servers and then try to use VirtualHosts.  We
have to use virtualhosts because we need things like
partner1.mydomain.com and partner2.mydomain.com.

I am not sure what to do at this point.
