Hi Thomas, I had to disappoint you, because the relevant excerpt of the Tomcat configuration below shows "jvmRoute" setup properly on EACH Tomcat instance:
"rb-wcmstc1" <Engine name="Standalone" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="rb-wcmstc1"> "rb-wcmstc2" <Engine name="Standalone" defaultHost="localhost" jvmRoute="rb-wcmstc2"> So, might it be a BUG in Apache2 2.2.16? Is it possible to identify the reason, why that happens on Apache2-side? How? Kind regards, Holger -----Original Message----- From: Thomas [mailto:apache.org-li...@darkwhole.de] Sent: Mittwoch, 29.

Why? It looks like you did not set the jvmRoute-Attribute of the Engine tag in your Tomcat configuration to "rb-wcmstc1" on the first and "rb-wcmstc2" on the second server. mod_proxy_ajp (used by mod_proxy_balancer) identifies the Tomcat-backend holding the session by looking up a suffix added to the JSESSIONID cookie value. You can easily check whether the suffix is set or not by logging the session id in the Tomcat access log (%S) or by logging Cookie and Set-Cookie HTTP headers (logpattern: %{Cookie}i and %{Set-Cookie}o) in your httpd access log.
