Hi, we want to use mod_proxy_balancer to load balance a J2EE application server. So stickysession is set to JSESSIONID. First I had: <Proxy balancer://default> BalancerMember http://host1 BalancerMember http://host2 BalancerMember http://host3 ProxySet stickysession=JSESSIONID </Proxy> ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPassMatch ^(.*\.jsp)$ balancer://default$1 ProxyPassMatch ^(.*\.do)$ balancer://default$1 But the session was not sticky. After some TCP dump and reading a bit more documentation, it seems that mod_proxy_balancer alters the sessionid by appending ".[number]". So now I have: <Proxy balancer://default> BalancerMember http://host1 route=0 BalancerMember http://host2 route=1 BalancerMember http://host3 route=2 ProxySet stickysession=JSESSIONID </Proxy> ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPassMatch ^(.*\.jsp)$ balancer://default$1 ProxyPassMatch ^(.*\.do)$ balancer://default$1 In all likelihood this works better. Is this the right way to do it? Regards, Gerhard --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
