How do you specify the other app instance (path2/myapp_fastcgi.pl)? Or do you have a different approach that doesn't use Alias? I used something like: VirtualHost * ServerName one.example.com Alias / /path/myapp_fastcgi.pl/ ... /VirtualHost VirtualHost * ServerName two.example.com Alias / /path2/myapp_fastcgi.pl/ ... /VirtualHost Anyways, I just switched over to lighttpd on a dedicated machine and the load-balancing worked perfectly within a couple of minutes :) Oh well, I guess you don't need to faff around with fastcgi anymore then ;-) Glad you have it sorted.

[Catalyst] Multiple FastCGI app servers with Apache2
Does anyone know if it's possible to distribute requests to multiple external FastCGI servers with Apache2 + mod_fastcgi similar to the round-robin load-balancing approach lighttpd provides? I have this large legacy app running on mod_perl behind an apache2 reverse proxy where I'd like to plug in my new Catalyst app via FastCGI which eventually should run on more than one physical app server. If possible I'd like to stick with Apache2 as the reverse proxy for now ...
