Inquiry About CMS Nginx Load Balancing Configuration
鄭庭昀
Dear Developer,
Hello, I am a master's student from National Changhua University of Education in Taiwan. We frequently use the CMS exam environment for in-class practical exams and large programming competitions held domestically, and we really appreciate this system. Currently, I am conducting an experiment on load balancing and attempting to use CMS for this purpose. However, I have encountered some issues that have been troubling me for quite a while.
I am trying to add a cmsContestWebServer on Host 2 to share the traffic load with Host 1. The issue I am facing is that I have already shared the CMS and database between Host 1 and Host 2. I also followed the instructions in the nginx.conf.sample from the CMS GitHub repository to configure Nginx. The Nginx service shows that it is operating normally, but when logging in from Host 1 (port 8888), I am still redirected to the original Host 1 location, and Host 2 is not receiving any requests.
Could you kindly guide me on what might be missing or incorrectly configured? This issue has been a persistent challenge for me, and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your help.
Best regards,
Kevin Cheng
