Hi,
the FAQ didn’t answer this, so sorry if this is a stupid question.
I’m running a site on three webservers with a simple Round-Robin-DNS loadbalacining, with a single MySQL database server.
Is it possible to run Mint on all three webservers? (It would be a problem if Mint uses some local data on the webserver for session management.)
Thanks!
Hanno
Mint doesn’t use any local data aside from what it stores in the database. You should be okay but I personally don’t have any experience with load-balanced servers.
Hi,
thanks, it works fine.
Some observations, though:
I installed the software on php1.domain and then copied it to php2.domain and php3.domain, finally to access it through php.domain (which is the round robin address for php1-3).
However, Mint remembered that it was installed on php1 and kept having most of its load on php1. You may want to change this or add a note on how the mint user can change the config value.
I did by brute force: update mint__config set cfg = replace(cfg, “php1.wer-weiss-was.de”, “php.wer-weiss-was.de”) where id=1;
Thanks,
Hanno
A simple visit to /mint/?moved will update Mint’s internal pointers.
