Hi,
I've setup HAProxy (version 1.3.15.2 from repo's) on Debian to load balance
requests to a bunch of Windows web services running on IIS7. My problem is
that after load testing the system, Windows runs out of sockets as they all
end up in the TCP TIME_WAIT state. (Nice explanation of this TCP state found
here:
http://blog.zhuzhaoyuan.com/2009/03/a-word-on-time_wait-and-close_wait/)
When removing the load balancer and having the requests go directly to the web server there are only a maximum of 10 sockets in the TIME_WAIT state at any one time.
It seems like there's some error in communication between HAProxy and Windows/IIS7 where the sockets aren't closed properly. I've tried adding the "httpclose" option but the problem remained. Has anyone had this problem before? My haproxy.cfg is as below:
global
log 127.0.0.1 local0 log 127.0.0.1 local1 notice
#log loghost local0 info
maxconn 40960
#chroot /usr/share/haproxy
user haproxy group haproxy daemon
#debug
#quiet
defaults log global mode http option httplog option dontlognull retries 3 option redispatch maxconn 2000 contimeout 5000 clitimeout 50000 srvtimeout 50000 listen webfarm 192.168.17.150:80 mode http stats enable stats auth admin:admin balance roundrobin option httpchk option httpclose http-check disable-on-404 server dn1 192.168.17.136 check server dn2 192.168.17.137 check server dn3 192.168.17.138 check
Thank you
