Hello community!
I am trying to setup HAP as a Load Balancer to our backends which are running HAP as a reverse proxy (I try to use one tool instead of two, i.e. nginx). I am running HAP 2.8 in docker (default image, haproxy -vv below) on both servers. I know I could use mode tcp for tls forwarding on the load balancer but I need to use cookies for sticky sessions.
So far the setup is running and working, but my backend instance is getting spammed with the following error: loadbalancerIP:port all_frontend/2: SSL handshake failure.
I cannot find the root cause for it neither do I understand it. My guess is this is related to the health check because this is happening “in idle” without anyone trying to request the website.
I also noticed the backend only logs the IP from the load balancer for each site request. But this is another topic I guess.
server-full.pem file consists of (in this order): key, cert, ca2/intermediate, root
chain.pem file consists of: ca2/intermediate, root
