I first noticed it by the large number of sessions in the manager webapp, but then I verified it in my logs. Both of my sites are polled every minute by the UptimeRobot service. These requests are logged and I can see what session is being used. For the default host site, they reuse the same session. For the non-default host sites, they create new sessions.

The documentation states "Normally, this Valve would be used at the Engine level.", so that's what I did. https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/config/valve.html#Crawler_Session_Manager_Valve - Matt -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Schultz <ch...@christopherschultz.net> Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2018 1:46 PM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: Re: CrawlerSessionManagerValve only working with default host Matt, On 4/11/18 2:03 PM, Matt Cosentino wrote: > I have CrawlerSessionManagerValve set up at the Engine level, but it only > seems to be working for the default host and not any other host.

Can you describe your testing and the results you got? When you say "only [...] working for the default host", do you mean that it works for the default host within an <Engine> (when configured at the <Engine> level) or that it doesn't even work with a non-default <Host> when configured at the <Host> level? -chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
