JVMRoute not apending to cookies or showing in jmx-console

daltonwest Mar 4, 2012 7:12 PM

Using Jboss AS 5.1, I have created a clustered web profile which all looks fine. The issue I face is with the JVMRoute property in server.xml under deploy/jbossweb.sar not appending to cookies or appearing in the jmx-console view. Sticky sessions are not working.

We are running a number of 5.0 profiles with sticky sessions working without a problem, but this is quite perplexing.

We are using mod_proxy for the Apache config, but this does not seem relevant as Jboss is not appending its node name to the outgoing cookies. We have used the same load balance Apache config with 5.0 profiles with success.

I am tearing my hair out with this, as it should be simple, but I cannot track it down.

After uncommenting out the '<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RequestDumperValve" />' line in server.xml, I can see that two cookies are being sent out, as shown below:

This seems strange, as on working jvmRoute nodes (Jboss 5.0) only one cookie is in the logs, see below:
