Hi all -
Okay, I've poked around a bunch looking for possible solutions to this
problem but can't seem to make any headway.
I'm implementing a simple load balancing solution between two origin servers
one of which is running squid and must also handle a number of
non-accelerated virtual hosts.
The set up looks like this:
Primary server:
Squid in surrogate mode listening on 80, with redirector for all URIs
Apache, bound to 127.0.0.1 listening on 80
Serving a number of name-based virtual hosts
Secondary server:
Apache bound to IP listening on 80
I have squid running successfully for all virtual hosts using the single
primary origin server with the following directives:
httpd_accel_host 127.0.0.1
httpd_accel_port 80
httpd_accel_single_host on
httpd_accel_uses_host_header on
If I try to add support for my simple redirector (listed below) using the
following directives, I can no longer connect to any of the virtual hosts.
Client connections end up timing out (WARNING: Closing client 24.10.x.x
connection due to lifetime timeout).
redirect_program /path/to/load_balancer.pl
redirect_rewrites_host_header off
httpd_accel_host 127.0.0.1
httpd_accel_port 80
httpd_accel_single_host off
httpd_accel_uses_host_header on
The redirector (pared down for simplicity; eventually will direct to
secondary server too):
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
$|++;
while (<>) {
print "http://127.0.0.1";;
}
I'm sure this is a matter of balancing the different confg directives but I
haven't seen an config exactly like this before.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Todd
