Hello list, it seems mod_proxy / mod_proxy_ajp does not realize config changes while doing a graceful restart. I need to connect to 2 ajp-services but only to one at one time. If I have ProxyPass /sample balancer://balancer/sample stickysession=JSESSIONID nofailover=On <Proxy balancer://balancer> BalancerMember ajp://app1:8009 route=app1 loadfactor=1 status=D BalancerMember ajp://app2:8009 route=app2 loadfactor=1 </Proxy> Then everything works OK. If I change it to <Proxy balancer://balancer> BalancerMember ajp://app1:8009 route=app1 loadfactor=1 BalancerMember ajp://app2:8009 route=app2 loadfactor=1 status=D </Proxy> And perform a apache -k graceful The /balancer-manager shows the old config. And the apache is not working like the new way but the above. If I perform a restart - all current sessions get be killed - and it works as it connects to the other balancer member. Why is graceful not enough? Or what can I do to get the config change in balancer without terminating current sessions? (If I do it with the balancer-manager via Web it works as well). Any hints appreciated. Torsten.
