Description tkjoeglu 2017-10-12 13:29:44 UTC 
When running config test; apachectl -t we get an error if the loadfactor is larger than 1.

Our configuration works fine in 2.4.27, but fails in 2.4.28. 

Error received:
> apache2 - AH00526: Syntax error on line 8 of config/workers.conf: BalancerMember LoadFactor must be a number between 1..100

Line 8 of config file in question:
> BalancerMember URL:12000 route=admin loadfactor=100 status=-N

If we change the loadcator to be between 0.0 and 1.0 it works in 2.4.28.

We have found another reference to the same problem:

Commit r1805195 was missing in backport for 2.4.28 (r1808855).
Now proposed for backport to 2.4.29.
Comment 2 Yann Ylavic 2017-10-13 07:34:27 UTC 
Backported to upcoming 2.4.29 (r1812074).
