Hello Anthony, I don't know why rd.forward() method doesn't redirect your users, I use a similar schema and I haven't any problem. Are there some error messages ? Instead, to mantain session information through response.sendRedirect(site) you may use: response.sendRedirect(response.encodeURL(site));
