Hi,

I tried to set up a little cluster using mod balancer. To implement stickyness I used the following setup:

Code:
Header add Set-Cookie "ROUTEID=.%{BALANCER_WORKER_ROUTE}e; path=/" env=BALANCER_ROUTE_CHANGED

<Proxy balancer://mycluster>
                # WebHead1
                BalancerMember http://host1:80/ route=1 loadfactor=4
                # WebHead2
                BalancerMember http://host:80 route=2 loadfactor=6

               # Security "technically we aren't blocking
                # anyone but this the place to make those
                # chages
                Order Deny,Allow
                Deny from none
                Allow from all

                # Load Balancer Settings
                # We will be configuring a simple Round
                # Robin style load balancer.  This means
                # that all webheads take an equal share of
                # of the load.
                ProxyPreserveHost On
                ProxySet lbmethod=bybusyness
                #ProxySet lbmethod=byrequests
                ProxySet stickysession=ROUTEID
      </Proxy>

That works fine so far. However, I could not find how I can set the timout for such sticky sessions. I would need a really long timeout for the stickyness since the users might come back later to download a file which is stored at a particular server. Is there a way to implement this? The site I use this for is the following one: https://www.ocrgeek.com/. Any help is appreciated... Thanks a lot!

The timeout for the cookie can be set in the Header add Set-Cookie directive.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie#Expires_and_Max-Age
