Nginx+Tomcat在Windows下做负载均衡

Nginx+Tomcat在Windows下做负载均衡

一、为什么需要对Tomcat服务器做负载均衡：

Tomcat服务器作为一个Web服务器，其并发数在300-500之间，如果有超过500的并发数便会出现Tomcat不能响应新的请求的情况，严重影响网站的运行。

另外，在访问量大的情况下，Tomcat的线程数会不断增加。
由于Tomcat自身对内存的占用有控制，当对内存的占用达到最大值时便会出现内存溢出，对网站的访问严重超时等现象，这时便需要重新启动Tomcat以释放占用的内存，这样做便会阻断网站运行。

所以对Tomcat做负载均衡便很有必要。目前可以和Tomcat做负载均衡的主流服务器是Apache，但是Nginx由于功能多、配置简单等优点逐渐成为很多负载均衡服务器的首选。Nginx的并发数可达到50000，所以理论上可以和Tomcat以1:100的比例来配置，这样便可以很好的解决网站并发瓶颈问题。

二、Nginx+Tomcat在Windows下负载均衡配置方法：

Nginx+Tomcat在Windows下做负载均衡相对在Linux下简单不少，因为不论是Nginx还是Tomcat只需要下载Windows下的安装包解压到某个目录下，然后就可以做配置了。

我选择的Nginx是nginx-0.8.49这个版本，Tomcat选择的是apache-tomcat-6.0.26。

下面就是配置过程:

1.将nginx-0.8.49.rar压缩包直接解压到某个目录下(如D:/负载均衡/nginx)。

2.将apache-tomcat-6.0.26.rar压缩包解压，因为是做负载均衡，所以至少要解压两个。(如分别解压到D:/负载均衡/tomcat_1和D:/负载均衡/tomcat_2下面)。

3.将要发布的项目发布到两个Tomcat根目录下的webapps下，保证两个Tomcat下面的项目名称相同。

4.修改其中一个Tomcat的配置文件，该配置文件位于Tomcat目录下的/conf/下，文件名为server.xml，修改其中的

<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">为<Server port="8006" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">

修改其中的

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" 
               connectionTimeout="20000" 
               redirectPort="8443" />

为

<Connector port="8088" protocol="HTTP/1.1" 
               connectionTimeout="20000" 
               redirectPort="8443" />

修改后的文件如下：

5.修改Nginx配置文件nginx.conf，该文件位于Nginx根目录下的/conf下面。

① 在#gzip on;后面加入下面配置:

upstream backend {
    server localhost:8080;
    server localhost:8088;
    ip_hash;
}

其中server localhost:8080为第一个Tomcat的启动地址，server localhost:8088为第二个Tomcat的启动地址，ip_hash用于做session同步。

② 修改第一个server{}配置中的listen 80;改为新的端口号，因为我的本机80端口被IIS占用，因此将此处改为listen 800;。并将

location / {
    root   html;
    index  index.html index.htm;
}

改为：

location / {
    root   html;
    index  index.html index.htm;
proxy_pass                  http://backend;  
   proxy_redirect              off;
   proxy_set_header            Host $host;
   proxy_set_header            X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
   proxy_set_header            X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
   client_max_body_size        10m;
   client_body_buffer_size     128k;
   proxy_connect_timeout       90;
   proxy_send_timeout          90;
   proxy_read_timeout          90;
   proxy_buffer_size           4k;
   proxy_buffers               4 32k;
   proxy_busy_buffers_size     64k;
   proxy_temp_file_write_size  64k; 
}

其中proxy_pass参数和upstream backend{}对应。

经过上面这些步骤，负载均衡配置就完成，下面前分别启动两台tomcat，然后双击nginx根目录下的nginx.exe文件或者用start nginx启动nginx，打开浏览器，输入地址:http://localhost:800便可看到下面画面:

这说明已经成功跳转到Tomcat上面。下面以来电秀具体项目为例，输入地址：http://localhost:800/ldxwebpersonal/personal/index/index.action便可看到下面来电秀首页画面:

我们再看看两个Tomcat下面的日志显示:

端口号为8080的显示:

端口号为8088的显示:

这说明两个tomcat已经实现负载均衡。
