Hi all,
We are using HAproxy as a L7 load balancer on our busy phpBB3 based forums,
and we are finding it excellent.
We would like to upgrade to haproxy-1.5-dev in order to use the rate
limiting as described in http://blog.serverfault.com/post/1016491873/
However, this has not been possible, due to the fact that in haproxy-1.5-dev
the httpchk fails, and all backend servers are marked down.
Mar 30 11:30:19 localhost haproxy[24995]: Server to-slow-queue/forum-admin1
is DOWN, reason: Socket error, info: "Invalid argument", check duration:
0ms. 1 active and 0 backup servers left. 0 sessions active, 0 requeued, 0
remaining in queue.
Also, it cannot syslog due to
[ALERT] 088/120607 (26987) : sendto logger #0 failed: Invalid argument
(errno=22)
The relevant config extract for this is
defaults
option httpchk GET /health.html
backend webservers
server forum-web1 172.16.50.192:80 minconn 6 maxconn 10 weight 12 check
inter 2s fastinter 500ms downinter 10s slowstart 60000
The machine is a Sun Fire V125 with an UltraSPARC-IIIi processor, compiled
locally using gcc version 3.4.3 using
gmake TARGET=solaris ARCH=ultrasparc USE_PCRE=1
I can provide full haproxy.cfg if required.
Is this a known issue? I hope someone can assist.
Kind Regards
John Helliwell
