Weird behavior with Haproxy
-
I have an instance of pfsense CE running on Vmware cloud Director.
HAProxy frontend is https with offloading and in the backend there are two nodes listening on port 80 with apache 2.2 that acts as reverse proxy to a tomcat webapp. Persistence is cookie based (no stick table).
Sometime the returned web pages to the client are incomplete, but there are no evidences of who stopped the transmission.
I can't use transparent ssl with source ip persistence (in this scenario the broken pages are not appearing ) because some clients are under NAT proxy, so they appear to call from a single public IP address, breaking the persistence.
Anyone faced similar behavior?
