Connectivity Apache HTTPD & Tomcat7 (AJP Connector)

[jponnusa]

Hi,
We are using Tomcat 7.0.42.0, AJP/1.3 with Apache 2.2.21.
Connecting Apache to Tomcat as VirtualHost, The Problem is Apache and Tomcat losing its connection every 20-30 Minutes. Either We have to hit the WebServer URL multiple times or Reboot Apache & Tomcat to resolve the issue for short-time.
Also accessing WebServer URL is very very slow than tomcat URL (Mostly it takes 30-45seconds to load a Page, However same page is loading within 4-5 seconds through Tomcat URL).

I have added tomcat & Apache configurations below, Kindly please help me to resolve this issue.


Tomcat (Server.xml):

<Connector port="9090" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
 connectionTimeout="600000"
 redirectPort="8443"
 URIEncoding="UTF-8" emptySessionPath="true"/>
<Connector port="9009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" URIEncoding="UTF-8" connectionTimeout="600000"/>

Apache (Workers.properties):

worker.list=prod_live_svr
worker.prod_live_svr.type=ajp13

worker.prod_live_svr.host=10.100.0.31
worker.prod_live_svr.port=9009
worker.prod_live_svr.lbfactor=50
worker.prod_live_svr.socket_keepalive=1

worker.prod_live_svr.connection_pool_size=100 
worker.prod_live_svr.connection_pool_minsize=50 
worker.prod_live_svr.connection_pool_timeout=500

VirtualHost.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>

ServerName 10.100.0.31


ErrorLog logs/live/http_error.log
RewriteLog logs/live/http_rewrite.log

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^10\.100\.0\.31$
RewriteRule ^/+$ /sites/  [R,L]

<IfModule rewrite_module>

RewriteEngine	 On

RewriteOptions Inherit
RewriteLog logs/rewrite.log

</IfModule>
JkMount   /*        prod_live_svr

JkOptions +ForwardURICompatUnparsed

</VirtualHost>
