The session management for Jetty in trunk is screwed up and I suspect
that the wadi integration may have been the cause.
To see the symptom bring up the web console under jetty. It will take
several attempts to get past the login prompt (2-3). Once you do get
past the login prompt the next click (sometimes it take two) will send
you back to the login prompt again. And so it continues .... constantly
being tossed back to the login prompt because I suspect the session is
being lost. No message are sent to the console or the logs.
I have noticed that if I launch another browser (and so create a second
session) I can usually get one of the sessions to stick around long
enough to do some real activities (usually the one associated with the
first browser session).
This is only a problem on Jetty and not Tomcat.
I'll keep poking around but I was wondering if somebody (Gianny?) knew
some potential areas that may have been the culprit.
Thanks,
Joe
