Apache 2.2.4 + Tomcat 5.5 + Mod_jk 1.2 causing login loop
We have 2 tomcat servers being load-balanced by a front-end apache
server using mod-jk. Whenever we open a new browser and point the url
to the http://fakedomain.com/xyz/content/home/home.jsf and submit the
form, we get back the same form again with sessionid. Effectively, we
end up logging in twice. In other words, the form is fetched twice and
submitted twice.
Can anyone please guess what's going on ?
Here are the worker.properties:
worker.list=loadbalancer
worker.loadbalancer.type=lb
worker.loadbalancer.balance_workers=worker1,worker2
worker.worker1.type=ajp13
worker.worker1.host=172.16.170.30
worker.worker1.port=8009
worker.worker1.lbfactor=1
worker.worker1.retries=1
worker.worker2.type=ajp13
worker.worker2.host=172.16.170.35
worker.worker2.port=8009
worker.worker2.lbfactor=1
worker.worker2.retries=1
This is mod-jk.conf
# Load mod_jk module
# Specify the filename of the mod_jk lib
LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so
# Where to find workers.properties
JkWorkersFile conf/worker.properties
# Where to put jk logs
JkLogFile logs/mod_jk.log
# Set the jk log level [debug/error/info]
JkLogLevel debug
# Select the log format
JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y]"
# JkOptions indicates to send SSK KEY SIZE
JkOptions +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories
# JkRequestLogFormat
JkRequestLogFormat "%w %V %T"
# Mount your applications
JkMount /nva/* loadbalancer
JkMount /dwr/* loadbalancer
#JkMount /es/* es
JkMount /es/* loadbalancer
# You can use external file for mount points.
# It will be checked for updates each 60 seconds.
# The format of the file is: /url=worker
# /examples/*=loadbalancer
JkMountFile conf/uriworkermap.properties
# Add shared memory.
# This directive is present with 1.2.10 and
# later versions of mod_jk, and is needed for
# for load balancing to work properly
JkShmFile logs/jk.shm
# Add jkstatus for managing runtime data
<Location /jkstatus/>
JkMount status
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>
Finally in httpd.conf we have this line
Include conf/mod-jk.conf
If don't see any errors. What should I be looking in the debug output?
Thanks

Have you set to different jvmRoute attributes in the conf/server.xml for
the two tomcats?
Like
...
<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="worker1">
...
for one tomcat and
...
<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="worker2">
...
for the other one? Otherwise mod_jk will not be able to route the session
to the right tomcat (which is the one which generated the session).
Or you will have to set up session replication for the tomcats.

The problem was traced to duplicate jvmRoute in the Tomcat's server.xml
