Hello, I am having an issue where I could use some clarity. We are using apache 2.0.59 and tomcat 5.5. We are having some growing pains with vendor specified modjk and tomcat settings. 1. Tomcat opens up a number of threads during some transactions but does not close them. Is this because the connectionTimeout parameter is missing in the AJP connector defination? 2. I do have the cache_timeout (deprecated , I know ) set to 900 secs. What impact does that have on closing idle threads? 3. Today one of the Tomcat's froze and thru jkstatus I saw 409 connections open to it. If my connection pool size is 256 (from modjk.log) why are more connections being opened? Thanks, Chetan My workers.properties file looks like this. ps=/ worker.list=ajp13App31,ajp13App32,loadbalancer,mystatus workers.tomcat_home=/coach/app/ptc/tomcat1 worker.ajp13App31.port=8012 worker.ajp13App31.host=localhost worker.ajp13App31.type=ajp13 worker.ajp13App31.lbfactor=1 worker.ajp13App31.cache_timeout=900 worker.ajp13App31.socket_timeout=0 worker.ajp13App31.retries=3 worker.ajp13App31.recycle_timeout=900 worker.ajp13App32.port=8013 worker.ajp13App32.host=localhost worker.ajp13App32.type=ajp13 worker.ajp13App32.lbfactor=1 worker.ajp13App32.cache_timeout=900 worker.ajp13App32.socket_timeout=0 worker.ajp13App32.retries=3 worker.ajp13App32.recycle_timeout=900 worker.loadbalancer.type=lb worker.loadbalancer.balanced_workers=ajp13App31,ajp13App32 worker.loadbalancer.method=Request worker.loadbalancer.sticky_session=true worker.inprocess.class_path=$(workers.tomcat_home)$(ps)lib$(ps)tomcat.jar worker.inprocess.cmd_line=start worker.inprocess.stdout=$(workers.tomcat_home)$(ps)logs$(ps)inprocess.stdout worker.inprocess.stderr=$(workers.tomcat_home)$(ps)logs$(ps)inprocess.stderr worker.mystatus.type=status worker.mystatus.mount=/admin/status/jk And here is the AJP13 connector from one of the tomcat's server.xml : <Connector URIEncoding="UTF-8" acceptCount="100" debug="1" port="8012" protocol="AJP/1.3" protocolHandlerClassName="org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandler" redirectPort="8445" tomcatAuthentication="false" useBodyEncodingForURI="true"> Apache MPM # worker MPM # StartServers: initial number of server processes to start # MaxClients: maximum number of simultaneous client connections # MinSpareThreads: minimum number of worker threads which are kept spare # MaxSpareThreads: maximum number of worker threads which are kept spare # ThreadsPerChild: constant number of worker threads in each server process # MaxRequestsPerChild: maximum number of requests a server process serves <IfModule worker.c> ThreadLimit 512 StartServers 100 MaxClients 512 MinSpareThreads 129 MaxSpareThreads 256 ThreadsPerChild 256 MaxRequestsPerChild 0 </IfModule>
