    JBoss / Apache ajp_mod_proxy - Strange response

    baddeley84

      Hi,

       

      I have an App running on JBoss AS6 that uses Apache2 as a front end via mod_proxy_ajp

       

      I recently added SSL to our login areas, since doing this we have been experiencing issues whereby the server responds with some strange encoding in the response which is displayed in the browser window (shown in bottom of post). At a guess I would say it happens for one in ~1000 requests, I haven't noticed any kind of pattern to it though

       

      Any ideas what might be causing this? I am at a loose end!

       

      My Apache config is below

       

      <VirtualHost *:443>
      
      
              SSLEngine on
              SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/mysite.org.crt

              SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/apache2/ssl/mysite.org.bundle.crt
      
      
              SSLProxyEngine on

              ErrorDocument 404 /maintenance-page.html
              ProxyErrorOverride on

              # alert, emerg.
              LogLevel warn
      
      
              CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
      
      
              Alias /doc/ "/usr/share/doc/"
              <Directory "/usr/share/doc/">
                      Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
                      AllowOverride None
                      Order deny,allow
                      Deny from all
                      Allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128
              </Directory>
      
      
      </VirtualHost>
      
      

       

       

       

      And a sample of the response that is displayed in the browser...
