Debian load balancers with Ultra monkey

I setup 2 load balancers following this tutorial

http://www.howtoforge.com/high_availability_loadbalanced_apache_cluster_p2


The load balancers work great, but i cannot get Apache to server the website. Im using Fedora for the nodes and they are showing online. I have reduced the node to just one server to make sure i am connecting to just one to figure this out

i have added

net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind = 1

to the node to allow Apache to bind to the address.

Code:

checktimeout=10
checkinterval=2
autoreload=no
logfile="local0"
quiescent=yes

virtual=192.168.1.120:80
        real=192.168.1.241:80 gate
        real=192.168.1.244:80 gate
        fallback=127.0.0.1:80 gate
        service=http
        request="ldirector.html"
        receive="Test Page"
        scheduler=rr
        protocol=tcp
        checktype=negotiate

basic virtual host on Apache.

Code:

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.120:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/test"
<Directory "/var/www/test">
allow from all
Options +Indexes
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Code:

so when i browse now to 192.168.1.120 i get a timeout error, so i know Apache is not answering and a net stat only shows the load balancer connections.

 

Got a little time to work on this tonight. if i creat a Vhost on the node box with an IP set on one of the nics. Apache shows the website. so its like it is not getting the forwarded requests from the load balancer's.

 

When you have two ISPs you may want to make your linux machine balance the load of your internet access, you can use ip route

 

little more, i have put everything on separate sub nets with no change. still no packets are being sent to the real servers and the inactconn on the balancers just count up
