Hi Rainer, thanks for the reply, I don't understand how the proxy connection would have changed. Nothing has changed in the config files. I added the following in the httpd config file and also increased the timeout in the tomcat config file. SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1 SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1 Still seeing the same results -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/tomcat-close_wait-state-and-proxy-error-when-connecting-to-my-web-application-tp23510873p23523302.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
