mod_proxy_balancer: strange behaviour of multiple session identifiers
Last modified: 2013-03-27 09:28:27 EDT
Description of problem: see Bug 439218 when httpd is configured to stickysession=BALANCED|balanced session identifier works for both lowercase and uppercase variant, but if there is stickysession=balanced|BALANCED, it seems to work only for lowercase. Version-Release number of selected component: httpd-2.2.3-22.el5 How reproducible: see Bug 439218 Actual results: with stickysession=balanced|BALANCED, only "balanced" works as session identifier. Expected results: with stickysession=balanced|BALANCED, both lowercase and uppercase variant should work as session identifier, as it does with stickysession=BALANCED|balanced.
I'm not sure what your configuration was exactly, but I'm not able to reproduce it. The part before '|' is the name of the cookie and latter one the name of the url parametr. This has to be to set to values used by loadbalanced server (Tomcat for example...). So for example tomcat uses "JSESSIONID" as cookie name and "jsessionid" as url parametr, therefore it has to be "JSESSIONID|jsessionid". What server have you used together with apache and in what configuration?
We've been unable to reproduce this internally; I'm closing this bug.
