Re: Proxy to Tomcat AJP

Jorge,

Thank you for the feedback.  I was going to look at the native APR once I got everything configured correctly.  Is this necessary for running the AJP connector?  Does anyone run Apache to Tomcat in production?  If so, can you please share your experience and some feedback on how you configured it.

Thank you,

George

Not sure if this help:

 

Are you using Tomcat Native Library (based in APR too)?

It would allow you to specify some parameters of the AJP connector.

Subject: Proxy to Tomcat AJP

 

Hello,


I setup Apache to proxy to Tomcat using AJP, currently without SSL.  This is being used to connect a Flex application that uses AMF to Java on the back end.  All AMF calls are done using a POST to a servlet.  I have 3 tomcat instances running on separate ports.  Login is used for logging into the application.  NA1 and NA2 are the application servers.  This is running on RH Enterprise Linux 5, Apache HTTPD 2.2.3 and Tomcat 6.0.14

It all appears to work fine until I try to stress test it or someone uses the application for an extended period of time.  The errors that we encounter are either connection refused or hung connections, where the connection is alive but never returns a response.  At one point the connection would drop after a few minutes when it got hung and I would get APR errors in Apache and Broken pipe errors in Tomcat, but after changing some HTTPD configuration settings it now just stays hung forever.  I run the same stress tests against Tomcat directly and they all complete without errors.  I researched the configuration for each side of the connection, but I cannot find what I am doing wrong.  I am including each piece of the configuration.  Any help would be really appreciated.  Sorry for the lengthy email.

Thank you,
