When you get config errors, do not hesitate to try with the latest development snapshot. More and more corner cases are detected by newer versions, warnings have been improved sometimes with hints about what might be wrong. So basically you can keep a recent version somewhere just as a config parser when you're in trouble. > ## haproxy error > > [root@VIRTCENT01:~] #service haproxy restart > [ALERT] 171/142949 (13008) : Error(s) found in configuration file : > /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg > [ALERT] 171/142949 (13008) : Fatal errors found in configuration. > Errors in configuration file, check with haproxy check.

Servers can only be in a "listen" or "backend" section. It's the same for the balance algo, the cookie and the checks. All this belongs to a backend section. I'm sure this is the cause of your trouble. > ## this haproxy.cfg does work but the web servers are in the wrong section > > frontend www 192.168.1.200:80 > log global > default_backend app > > > backend app > log global > balance roundrobin > stats enable > cookie SERVERID insert indirect > option httpchk HEAD /check.txt HTTP/1.0 > server web1 web1.summitnjhome.com:80 cookie A check maxconn 128 > server web2 web2.summitnjhome.com:80 cookie B check maxconn 128 No, they're in the right one. Why do you think it's the wrong one ? Also Tim, you posted a config with your user and password for the stats page. Please double check on your side that this password is not used anywhere else, as it's public now. Regards, Willy
