I load balance two Apache Tomcat instances (5.5.27 - jdk 1.5.0_22) with
mod_proxy.
Intermittently the Content-Type header of the response does not relate to
the actual content type. Instead we receive "text/plain".
When connecting directly to the Tomcat http port, instead of going through
the Apache balancer, we do not experience this problem.
Server info:
CentOS release 5.3 (Final) 32bits
Server version: Apache/2.2.3 (httpd-2.2.3-92.el5.centos)
Server built: Jul 18 2016 10:51:39
I know the version is old, but we cannot update to 2.4 because this is a
production server.
The proxy configuration:
<Proxy balancer://clusteraeprod-scae/>
BalancerMember http://aepru01:8081 route=nodo1
BalancerMember http://aepru02:8081 route=nodo2
ProxySet stickysession=JSESSIONID
</Proxy>
<Location /cm>
ProxyPass balancer://clusteraeprod-scae/cm
ProxyPassReverse http://aepru01:8081/cm
ProxyPassReverse http://aepru02:8081/cm
</Location>
I'm unable to find any information whether this is a known bug.
If not, what can we do to try to locate the problem?
Thanks in advance.
