Hi,
I've configured mongrel_clusters behind an Apache 2.2 proxy using named virtual host. Session are saved as ActiveRecordSession. But the cookies created on client side doesn't correspond to session data saved in database (keys are different). The RoR app react just like it doesn't have a session at all.
If I don't use Apache as a proxy/load balancer and call directly Mongrel_cluster, everything works well.
What should I do to get session working with Mongrel behind an Apache proxy/load balancer ?
**** Extract of my Apache config *****
# Setup a cluster for each application <Proxy balancer://myapp> BalancerMember http://10.1.4.22:3000 BalancerMember http://10.1.4.22:3001 BalancerMember http://10.1.4.22:3002 </Proxy>
<VirtualHost 10.1.4.22:80> ServerName myapp.xxxxxxxx.yyy DocumentRoot /srv/www/rails/myapp/public
<Directory "/srv/www/rails/myapp/public"> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>
# The root of this virtual host redirect to Portal application ProxyPass / balancer://myapp/ ProxyPassReverse / balancer://myapp/ ProxyPreserveHost on
# Make all of the /public/images directory served by Apache ProxyPass /images ! Alias /images /srv/www/rails/myapp/public/images
# Setup your Rewrite rules here RewriteEngine On
# Rewrite index to check for static RewriteRule ^/$ /index.html [QSA]
# Send all requests that are not found as existing files to the cluster RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ balancer://myapp%{REQUEST_URI} [P,QSA,L]
# Error logs ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/myapp_error_log CustomLog /var/log/apache2/myapp_access_log combined </VirtualHost>>
**** END ****
Thanks,
