Hi,
I also use balancer-manager but after upgrading to httpd2.4.41 the curl is not working anymore, nothing changes on balancer page.
Anyone had this issue?

Hi,
I am having this issue. I had a working bash script that use to be able to manipulate the balance manager members. But, some upgrade seems to have broken this functionality.

Hello.
Same issue here, but it works when adding the referer header :
$CURL -s -o /dev/null -XPOST "http://${server}:${port}/${manager}?" -H "Referer: http://${server}:${port}/${manager}?b=${balancer}&w=${worker}&nonce=${nonce}" -d b="${balancer}" -d w="${worker}" -d nonce="${nonce}" -d w_status_D=1
