Hello, We are using ProxyPass and ProxyReversePass within Apache 2.2.2. Every once in a while we get a connection timed out, this results in mod_proxy disabling the worker for 60 seconds by default which doesn't work well for us. We started off by setting "retry=1" so it only marks it bad for 1 second, but we still lose up to 10 requests for each failure because of this. (Given the volume of the application). Is there another tunable parameter that can tell mod_proxy not to mark the worker bad at all? retry=0 is not accepted. Here is the message in the logs: "[Thu May 03 15:40:31 2007] [error] (145)Connection timed out: proxy: HTTPS: attempt to connect to _IPADDRESS_:443 (_hostname_) failed" [Tue May 03 15:40:31 2007] [error] ap_proxy_connect_backend disabling worker for (_hostname_) Thanks, Brian Hayward --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
