Package: libapache2-mod-jk Version: 1:1.2.37-1 Severity: important Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer, A more detailed description of the problem including discussion can be found at: http://tomcat.10.x6.nabble.com/mod-jk-worker-activation-not-working-anymore-in-1-2-37-td4999956.html In short: We use jkmanager to selectively disable (DIS state) workers to do rolling releases. This worked fine in Squeeze (mod_jk 1.2.30), but does not work properly anymore in Wheezy (mod_jk 1.2.37). The effect is: When I set a worker to disabled, it flips back and forth between disabled an active, and the load on the worker does not decrease as it should. Same with stopped. Happens on multiple Apache servers independently. The following change from the upcoming 1.2.38 release fixes the problem at least for our setup: --- libapache-mod-jk-1.2.37.orig/native/common/jk_status.c +++ libapache-mod-jk-1.2.37/native/common/jk_status.c @@ -3647,7 +3647,7 @@ static void commit_all_members(jk_ws_ser } } if (sync_needed == JK_TRUE) { - wr->sequence = 0; + wr->sequence = -1; if (!rc) rc = 3; } Please consider backporting this patch to Wheezy, because the worker activation state is completely unusable as it is now, and this is probably an important feature for many users of this package.
