[users@httpd] Load balancing with apache 2

[shyam <sh...@interviewexchange.com>]

Hi All,

I followed the steps provided in the documentation for apache load
balancing. I had success the first time but after that I keep getting
this error in my apache logs. My OS is windows 2000. I ca see the
balancing.conf in the conf directory. My Httpd.conf is :

 

RewriteMap SERVERS rnd:conf/balancing.conf

<Location />

 

    RewriteEngine On

      

            

    RewriteCond "%{HTTP_COOKIE}"
"(^|;\s*)jsessionid=\w*\.(\w+)($|;)"

    RewriteRule "(.*)"
"http://${SERVERS:%2}%{REQUEST_URI}"  [P,L]

    RewriteRule "^.*;jsessionid=\w*\.(\w+)($|;)"
"http://${SERVERS:$1}%{REQUEST_URI}"  [P,L]

    RewriteRule "(.*)"
"http://${SERVERS:ALL}%{REQUEST_URI}" [P,L]

 

    

</Location>

 

 error logs:

 

The system cannot find the path specified.  : mod_rewrite: can't access
text RewriteMap file /conf/balancing.conf

 

I have the balancing.conf in the conf directory. 

Balancing.conf

LB1  tomcat1:8080

LB3  tomcat2:8080

ALL  tomcat1:8080|tomcat2:8080

 

Please help me. I am struck.

 

Can you please tell me whats wrong with the above. 

 

Thanks in advance
