Hi All, I have some questions regarding the haproxy on debain howto. I seem to be having an issue getting the haproxy boxes to see the check.txt file I put it in my htdocs directory and can access it from the a browser directly to the IP of one of the boxes, but using the VIP I get service unavailable and the hastatus page shows both cluster members down. Does that give anyone an idea what I messed up? Also, in looking around for documentation to troubleshoot this and I think that I read that SSL isn't supported by haproxy. Is that correct? I'm trying to do a https/https HA load balancer for a webserver, but I'm not having much luck figuring out the best way to do it. Any advice on getting this fixed up? Thanks! Tfunk
Any errors in Apache's error log? I haven't tried SSL, but I think I read somewhere that it is supported. Take a look at the documentation that comes with the HAProxy .tar.gz file that you can download from the HAProxy web site.
I'll hang my head an shame now.... I was looking in the vhosts access and error logs and not seeing anything at all... I just checked the /var/logs/apache2/error.log and I'm seeing that mod_security is killing it. mod_security: Access denied with code 406. Pattern match "^$" at HEADER [uri "/check.txt"] What's probably worse is I didn't know I was running mod-security, and I have NO idea how to tell it that /check.txt is okay It's embarrassing being a noob btw...I see that you've done a new loadbalancer howto...does that mean you weren't happy with the haproxy version so you moved to pound? Thanks for your help! Tfunk
I have no idea how to tell what my rules set is I tried digging through the mod_security howto you wrote and the places it says to look (ie apache2.conf and the virtual host config) and I'm not seeing anything at all. ( I'm lost
