Hi,

usually those info messages indicate, that the request took to long, so the user in front of the browser did a retry or back or something similar. In this case the browser closes the existing connection to the web server, although parts of the response are still missing. When Tomcat send the next part of the response to the web server (e.G. Apache httpd), and the web server tries to send it back to the client (=browser), it detects a closed connection and this info message gets written into the log.

Depending on your load, the performance of the app and the patience of your users, a message every 20 to 30 seconds seems a bit to much.

You can add %D to your httpd access log, which will log microseconds response time to the access log, and also %{pid}P and %{tid}P, which will give the process id and the thread id of the thread serving the request. mod_jk also logs the process id and thread id automatically for each line, so there is a chance, that you can match those lines and find out, if they come from special requests (e.g. long running ones), from special users (IPs, Browsers) etc.

For the httpd access log configuration see

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_log_config.html

Caution: the timestamp in the jk log file, is the moment the problem got detected, the time stamp in the access log is the moment the request started (so you need to add the %d value to make them match).

Some more hints about your config included below.

Regards,

Rainer

Hello,

I found the following lines in my mod_jk.log every 20 to 30 seconds for all of my instances.

[info] jk_ajp_common.c (1511): Writing to client aborted or client network problems [info] jk_ajp_common.c (1996): (plexus12) request failed, because of client write error without recovery in send loop attempt=0 [info] jk_lb_worker.c (1092): unrecoverable error 200, request failed. Client failed in the middle of request, we can't recover to another instance.
[info] mod_jk.c (2270): Aborting connection for worker=plexus

First I thought, this is caused because of some related network traffic problem, but also the two Tomcat instances on the same machine appear in the log.

My configuration exist of Windows 2003 SP2 Servers, Apache httpd 2.2.6, mod_jk 1.2.25, and Tomcat 6.0.14.


Please, can anybody tell me what's wrong with my configuration and what is the meaning of these lines.

Thx in advanced

Ingo



My workers.properties:

workers.tomcat_home="C:\Server\tomcat-6.0.14"
workers.java_home="c:\java\jdk-6.0"
ps=\

The three above are not used since a long time. Remove them.

worker.list=plexus,jkstatus
worker.plexus11.port=8109
worker.plexus11.host=openuss01
worker.plexus11.type=ajp13
worker.plexus11.lbfactor=10
...
worker.plexus52.port=8209
worker.plexus52.host=openuss05
worker.plexus52.type=ajp13
worker.plexus52.lbfactor=10

worker.jkstatus.type=status
worker.plexus.type=lb
worker.plexus.sticky_session=true
worker.plexus.socket_timeout=20
worker.plexus.reply_timeout=3000

3 seconds reply timeout sounds a bit ambitious (but I don't know what your app does)

worker.plexus.max_reply_timeouts=40000

This max_reply_timeouts sounds a bit high. It controls after how many reply_timeouts a single sub worker of an lb gets put into an error state (and thus will not be used for a minute, before it gets tried again).

The counter gets incremented for each reply_timeout missed and gets divided by 2 about every minute. So assuming a steady flow of missed reply_timeouts, the value 40000 corresponds to about 20000 reply_timeouts missed per minute.

worker.plexus.balance_workers=plexus11,plexus21,plexus12,plexus22,plexus51,plexus31,plexus52
