So I have a project which contains multiple micro-services, the entry point is the Django micro-service(with user login & authentication).
All other Apis are wrapped with the @login_required decorator by Django.
I’ve deployed it using ngnix, gunicorn inside a kubernetes pod.
Everything works fine with 1 worker(sync) but I obviously want multiple workers, so when I increase my number of workers and threads(gthread), it doesn’t let me login redirects to login/?next=/login/5/.
After spending some time, I figured out the following:
- Since the default value of keepalive of a worker is 2s, the worker closes connection and a new worker is assigned & since they don’t share common memory,my session cookie isn’t carried forward.
- I tried increasing the keepalive time to 10s , now it lets me login but if someone tried to login when the worker is about to expire(around 10s), same, doesn’t login & redirects to
login/?next=/login/5/. - Another direction I found was about fixing the secret key as in this post, but I just using the default standard value which I even hardcoded in settings.py, but no luck.
I’ll attach my gunicorn config/logs below:
