mod_proxy and stickysession

[blambert]

I have a pair of Sugar installations that I'm attempting to load-balance over two servers (loadbalancing because I can, but two servers for HA).

After some experimentation, it appears that I need to consistently redirect the same user to the same server for the duration of their login; according to the Apache mod_proxy docs, the way to do this is via the "stickysession=<sessionIDname>" directive.

I tried the PHPSESSION suggested as a sane default for PHP apps, but no dice.

Can anybody lead me to where I need to go on this in order to make it work?

Thanks.

Hi! what appliance are you using to load balance sugar?

No appliances, just Apache with mod_proxy and mod_proxy_balance. I'd much rather do this with OpenBSD and relayd, but that's not an option right now
