Hi,

I have posted bug fix to TC load balancing when using URL-only sessionID
(both mod_jk and mod_jserv).
I have received no answer. 

The fix is for 3.2b6.

R u going to include this?

This fix bug #328, and let tomcat to serve applications that can't use
cookies (like cellular phones - WAP).

My original mail attached below.

Subject: Ready for 3.2b7?

It's been a week now, and I've committed > 20 patches to the 3.2 tree,
ranging from simple tweaks to security problems to spec compliance
bugs.  I believe that I've gotten all of the critical bug reports
submitted on the mailing lists or via BugRat.  Does anyone know of any
I've missed (see below for one issue I know is outstanding)?

What I'd like to do is build a "beta 7" release this afternoon and post
it.  That will give people a chance to pound on it.  Any critical bugs
we find will need to be fixed, but we need to hold off on changing
non-essential stuff so we can get a final 3.2 release out the door.

NOTE:  One issue that's been discussed in the last couple of days is
problems supporting the "load balancing" feature for root webapps.  I
haven't seen a proposed patch for this, but understand from the comments
of people that have tried kludges to work around it -- and it seems
unreasonable to risk destabilizing things at this late date.  I suggest
that any work on fixing this problem be deferred to a post-3.2-final
maintenance cycle.

PS:  Thanks to everyone for all the bug reports, and to Larry and Nacho
for chipping in on the commits!

PPS:  When the 3.2 final release is completed, my personal focus is
going to return to the Tomcat 4.0 code base (which does not suffer from
any of the bugs patched in 3.2, although I did find one 4.0 bug along
the way :-).  If and when bugs show up in 3.2 final, I will be happy to
commit patches that people supply -- but any big debugging effort or
major new work on the 3.x track will need to be done by someone else.

Hi all,
 
While developing Tomcat based application for mobile phone, I have found out
that the lack of cookies support in WAP phones, will not let me run my
servlets on Tomcat load balance configuration.
In order to point Apache to two tomcats, I needed the apache to use the
jvmRoute section in the cookie to route the requests back to the original
Tomcat (using mod_jk).
 
Since the urls in the wml has written using the encodeurl function that does
not support adding the '.jvmRoute' to the url, the followed requests come
from the user without specifying the origin Tomcat (since there are no
cookies).
 
In order to fix that I have written RequestInterceptor to allow URL session
support to work with multiple Tomcat configuration.
To use that you must REPLACE the SessionInterceptor with the new
interceptor. Here is that part of server.xml:
 
<!--
     Commented out by Shai Fultheim to enable url session interceptor.
        <RequestInterceptor 
            className="org.apache.tomcat.request.SessionInterceptor" />
 
-->
        <RequestInterceptor 
            className="org.apache.tomcat.session.URLSessionInterceptor"
         debug="1" />
 
The interceptor is  part of session package in order to use the
(StandartSession.)encodeUrl.
