Problems with load balancing in eB Web

Hi,

We can't load balance two eB Web Servers. We tried many different configuration options for sharing the session state but none works.

This is the error we get:

Exception: System.Web.HttpException
Message: Unable to serialize the session state. In ‘StateServer’ and ‘SQLServer’ mode, ASP.NET will serialize the session state objects, and as a result non-serializable objects or MarshalByRef objects are not permitted. The same restriction applies if similar serialization is done by the custom session state store in ‘Custom’ mode...

Please advice ASAP, thanks a lot,
Sebastian.

  • The answer to both 1 and 2 is Yes. Reply from Ron Seydler.

    The customer is not "confortable" with the imposibility of eB Web to share session states across multiple web servers and is going to upgrade to v15.6.1 + lastest HF in a couple of months, so these are the only two things I'm not sure about:

     

    1-Could you confirm that the only way to load balance two eB v15.4.1 web servers is by setting the load balance method to hold the user against the web server that received the first request?  If is the only way, no problem, I'll talk to them to manage the expectations but I need to be sure.

     

    2-And would It work the same way for eB v15.6.1 or in that version we have the option to share sessions between both web servers by using standard .NET feature/settings?

     

    Thanks a lot for your outstanding support, kind regards,

    Sebastian.
