[jboss-user] Unable to load balance and replicate session using jboss servers

Hi, I am trying to load balance JBoss servers(jboss 4.2.2) with session replication on windows. I have tried using mod_jk(version 1.2.27) as connector, but unable to connect apache http server(version 2.2.13) to jboss server. I have successfully load balanced jboss servers with mod proxy, but no session replication in this case. Kindly help me to load balance servers using mod_jk as well as replicating session in case of mod proxy. Settings for mod_jk : I have done the following settings in httpd.conf: LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so Include conf/mod-jk.conf In mod-jk.conf file: JkWorkersFile conf/workers.properties JkShmFile logs/mod_jk.shm JkLogFile logs/mod_jk.log JkLogLevel info JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] " JkOptions +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories JkRequestLogFormat "%w %V %T" JkMount /* loadbalancer <Location /jkstatus/> JkMount status Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 </Location> In workers.properties file: worker.list=loadbalancer,status worker.node1.port=8012 worker.node1.host=172.17.88.53 worker.node1.type=ajp13 worker.node1.lbfactor=1 worker.node1.cachesize=10 worker.node1.redirect=node2 worker.node2.port=8012 worker.node2.host=172.17.88.46 worker.node2.type=ajp13 worker.node2.lbfactor=1 worker.node2.cachesize=10 worker.node2.redirect=node1 worker.loadbalancer.type=lb worker.loadbalancer.balance_workers=node1,node2 worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=1 worker.status.type=status The error that comes in apache server's log file is : No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- But when I used mod_proxy, I was able to load balance JBoss servers but unable to replicate session. I did the following settings in httpd.conf for load balancing: ProxyRequests On ProxyVia On ProxyPass / balancer://mycluster/ <Proxy balancer://mycluster> BalancerMember https://172.17.88.46:8444 smax=10 BalancerMember https://172.17.88.53:8444 smax=1 loadfactor=20 </Proxy> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JBoss settings : In server.xml : <Engine name="jboss.web" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="node1"> In web.xml : added the tag : <distributable/> In jboss-web.xml : added the following cluster configuration : <replication-config> <replication-trigger>ACCESS</replication-trigger> <replication-granularity>SESSION</replication-granularity> </replication-config> In jboss-service.xml : <attribute name="UseJK">true</attribute> I am able to load balance the servers successfully using mod proxy but unable to replicate session. Kindly let me know if I am missing something...
