5. Load Balancing fails?

Load Balancing fails?

  • K

    Dear,

    I've setup a loadbalancing/failover system using a tutorial here.  Without doing a thing it seems to be broken?
    I've made some screenshots of it…or did i made a mistake?

    Gateways

    When i go to e.g. www.whatismyip.com, i always see the IP of my Belgacom account, but never the ip of my dommel account.

    1. Both of your gateways are marked as default. Did you set that or did it happen by accident?

    2. In your rules, everything will match the LB_WAN1andWAN2 rule, and never get past that in the ruleset, ever.

    3. Don't use the same browser to test - It will keep a state/session open and always show the same WAN. Try several browsers, or use curl from a command prompt on a system on LAN.

    1. I've already seen that, and only the Belgacom line is the default one.  But when i go to http://10.0.0.1/system_gateways_edit.php?id=0 and uncheck "Default Gateway", and click on save…i don't change at all?

    2. could you please say me how to set it correctly?

    3. I always use firefox and chrome.

    re: both gateways shown as default.
    If both are still shown as default, go to Diagnostics menu => Command Prompt page and execute

    ls -al /tmp/

    and post the result here.

    Thanks for this advice!

    //edit
    I've tried to uncheck the "default" box using IE, firefox, chrome and safari (on different computers), but i can't change it?
    //edit

    Here you are:

    I just committed a fix for the "multiple default gateways" problem.

    Thanks for the update.

    How long does it typically take for the change to make it into a current snap?

    @Phobia:

    How long does it typically take for the change to make it into a current snap?

    The ideal case is that there have been no commits in a while, and that commit wakes up the snapshot builder and it starts a run. It takes a few hours for a full snapshot run to complete and upload, so it could be 4-6 hours, or a little more, I haven't timed the snapshot runs lately.

    The worst case is that another build started before the commit, and it was missed in that run, so it would have to wait until that run finished and then the builder would immediately start a new run, so maybe 12+ hours.

    You can always gitsync up to current code if there were only changes on the PHP side of things. Search the doc wiki for "gitsync" for more info.

    Thanks for that info.

    I updated to :

    2.0-BETA4  (i386)
    built on Sun Oct 10 10:45:27 EDT 2010
    FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p1

    The multiple default GW bug seems solved for me!  Thanks.

    Now I just need help to figure out my "Gathering Data" and disconnect button issues.
