Apache Balancer Names are Case Insensitive
In apache 2.2.22,
# yay
<Proxy balancer://yay stickysession=JSESSIONID failonstatus=500,501,502,503>
BalancerMember http://webqa1.somewhere.com:8400/yay/ retry=10 route=webqa1
BalancerMember http://webqa2.somewhere.com:8400/yay/ retry=10 route=webqa2
</Proxy>
ProxyPass /reslife/ balancer://yay/
# YAY
<Proxy balancer://YAY stickysession=JSESSIONID failonstatus=500,501,502,503>
BalancerMember http://webqa1.somewhere.com:8400/YAY/ retry=10 route=webqa1
BalancerMember http://webqa2.somewhere.com:8400/YAY/ retry=10 route=webqa2
</Proxy>
ProxyPass /YAY/ balancer://YAY/Will produce a balancer called “balancer://yay” with 4 workers mapped to both /YAY and /yay. Requests will randomly stick to one or the other. Fun bug/feature of the day.
