RE: New HAProxy user keeps loosing connection

Hi Willy

I checked the cfg files for both HAProxy and heartbeat, and they're the same where they are supposed to be. You we're right about the SYSLOGD="-r" setting. I didn't know I had to do that. I've attached a new copy of the haproxy.log file I started when I restarted both LB1 and LB2 servers. It shows from the time it works at 08:54, till it stops at 09:14. The log is from LB1, and the same log on LB2 shows "May 16 09:14:58 lb2 -- MARK --" when I couldn't get back into the stats. I still can get to my test local web site even after the stats go away.

Well, unfortunately there is no haproxy log here. Are you sure that your syslogd listens to the UDP socket ? (check for the "-r" option). However, in the logs heartbeat is saying that it switches to node lb2 and that lb1 goes standby. So most likely your second click is handled by lb2, and maybe that one does not have exactly the same config options. You should compare the configs.
