I did find that moving the session logic after all of the struts tags, it
worked. I am still curious why it would not work in the original order,
since I was calling session = request.getSession(true); to make sure a new
session was available before the struts tags ran.
Does anyone have any insight about this?

Subject: session.invalidate() - IllegalStateException
I am trying to implement a logout in my struts app. I was using Tomcat 4.0
beta, but have moved to Resin 1.2.5. My problem occurs in both app servers.
The following code works fine until I reach the <html:html>.
<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tlds/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tlds/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
<%
out.println("Session id is " + session.getId());
if (!session.isNew()) {
out.println("<H1>Your Session is OLD. I will invalidate it
here.</H1>");
try {
session.invalidate(); // They are here to login. Kill any prior
sessions before login.
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
out.println("<H1>I had an exception</H1>");
}
}
try {
session.setAttribute("lastPageAccessed", "Login");
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
session = request.getSession(true);
session.setAttribute("lastPageAccessed", "Login");
}
%>

The code in the taglib reads:
----------
protected Locale currentLocale() {
// Create a new session if necessary
HttpSession session = pageContext.getSession();
if (locale && (session == null))
session =
((HttpServletRequest)
pageContext.getRequest()).getSession();
if (session == null)
return (null);
// Return any currently set Locale in our session
//Line 219:
Locale current = (Locale) session.getAttribute(Action.LOCALE_KEY);
