[users@httpd] proxy_loadbalancer and failover

Hi all,

I am trying to configure the latest Apache 2.2.x on Windows 7 64bit (so using 
32bit emulation) as a Reverse Proxy with Load Balancing. I can get the reverse 
proxy side of things to work. The load balancing too works if the origin servers 
work. But if I configure it to go to a port that is not listened to, then I get 
a 502 every second request and the balancer worker is never put into error 
state.
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /--deleted--
Reason: Error reading from remote server

Now I've pulled my hair out looking through Google, so I downloaded the code and 
started to reverse engineer how Apache works. My C is pretty rusty but I'm 
getting there. The code looks like it tries to read the status line off the 
response from a dummy request object, fails to do that and sends a 502 without 
placing the worker into error. In fact I can't see anywhere where we can place a 
worker into error due to a connection problem. The only place I see is if the 
status code matches a list of status codes that come from the configuration in 
an undocumented config option that doesn't seem to work for me. 

Any ideas?
Thanks,

Michael

Thanks Joost, but it confirms that I don't have anything listening on that port. 
Really weird. 

See attachment.

Use tcpview ( 
http://technet.microsoft.com/nl-nl/sysinternals/bb897437%28en-us%29.aspx)to see 
which process has port 81 in use.

Thanks Rainer,

I checked and clearly there is something listening on port 81 but I can't figure 
out what it is. When I switxh to port 82 it works as I'd expect.

Next up is sticky session support when I can't control the origin server's 
session cookie ...

It is the winsock error numbr, so 10054 is "Connection reset by peer".

It only means we got a connection object from the pool. It is not 
necessarily actually connected yet.

But this tells us, that there *is* something at port 81 we could connect to.

And our peer closes the new connection. That's the problem, why the 
worker isn't put into error state.

Can you try using "telnet 127.0.0.1 81" to connect to port 81? If this 
also works, then we no longer have any indication of an Apache problem. 
Instead you need to find out, what accepts connctions on this port on 
your machine. To check the opposite, if you find some port nothing 
responds to, you can verify the correct setting of the error state using 
that port.

Rainer

[users@httpd] Re : [users@httpd] Re : [users@httpd] proxy_loadbalancer and failover

Posted by michael bienstein <mb...@yahoo.fr>.
Here's the error.log snippet for sending my Chrome browser to 
http://localhost:8081/qlikview

The first request gets sent to 127.0.0.1:80 and works. It is a redirect to 
/qlikview/index.htm.
The second request gets sent to 127.0.0.1:81. This says that it acquired a 
connection which can't be true. The existing socket is then forcibly closed by 
remote host OS 10054. Now I have run netstat -ab and nothing is listening on 
port 81. So it is really strange. In any case, my Apache sends back the 502 
because of this. Then there is a request for the favicon which fails because it 
isn't mapped to anything.

So what is that OS 10054 and how to fix it?

Michael

You likely don't need to activate mod_proxy_connect. At least you don't 
allow the CONNECT method in the config below.

Looks OK as a basic configuration.

If the port 81 doesn't listen, then the request should fail earlier than 
the error message you showed. Maybe it does fail over to port 80 and we 
get the error there.

Could you please increase your LogLevel to "debug" and provide the error 
log snippet?

Hi,

Thanks for the help. I have a IIS listening on port 80 and nothing on port 81.

Please provide your full Apache version and the relevant parts of your 
proxy configuration.

[users@httpd] Re : [users@httpd] proxy_loadbalancer and failover

Posted by michael bienstein <mb...@yahoo.fr>.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I don't think so. As I said, I did see in the code I have that we can match the 
status code against a list of error codes and place the worker into error state 
if it matches. This PR looks to be exactly that. I tried it but the stable 
release I downloaded refused to start saying it didn't like the config 
directive. The real problem I have is that there isn't any status code at all 
because it never connected. The 502 is created by the proxy and not the origin 
server.

How is failover supposed to work with the balancer?

Michael
