After a bunch of refreshes normal (I see the pages in each system's
access log) to the page :

It stops responding, and I see (something like) this :

I see nothing in the back end's (bookpc2, .112) logs, but in the front
end's logs 9bookpc1, .111) I start to (slowly) see these :
[Sun Feb 20 16:29:55 2005] [warn] (4)Interrupted system call: connect()
timed out
Eventually, I see this :
[Sun Feb 20 14:18:09 2005] [error] [client 10.200.1.90] Request exceeded
the limit of 20 internal redirects due to probable configuration error.
Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use
'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.
And / or this :
[Sun Feb 20 16:53:12 2005] [error] mod_backhand: child 4734 hung talking
to moderator. Die!
And
[Sun Feb 20 17:06:41 2005] [error] (61)Connection refused: Child 4874
failed to establish umbilical to moderator!
And
[Sun Feb 20 17:08:09 2005] [notice] child pid 4860 exit signal Broken
pipe (13)
And
message format error
This list / package appears to be have relatively low volume of
chatter. This could either mean 'really stable' or 'dead project'.
I asked on #apache, and people said it was 'in use, but not being
developed (for)'.
I would love to use this to load balance for some XML-RPC scripts
I am developing, but it has to berock solid for this. If this is not the
tool, is there something that people are using now?
TIA
