Nick, I think you want to use balanced_workers not balance_workers.
Here's a snippit from our workers.properties. worker.list=lbcon # ww1 worker.ww1.port=8009 worker.ww1.host=192.168.X.Y worker.ww1.type=ajp13 worker.ww1.lbfactor=1 worker.ww1.cachesize=20 worker.ww1.local_worker=0 # ww2 worker.ww2.port=8009 worker.ww2.host=192.168.X.Z worker.ww2.type=ajp13 worker.ww2.lbfactor=1 worker.ww2.cachesize=20 worker.ww2.local_worker=1 worker.lbcon.type=lb worker.lbcon.sticky_session=1 worker.lbcon.balanced_workers=ww1,ww2 worker.lbcon.local_worker_only=0 John -----Original Message----- From: Duan, Nick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 17, 2005 11:02 AM To: tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org Subject: Session not sticky in 5.5 with load balancer I am running an Apache httpd server as the load balancer with two tomcat instances.
