You're misreading the doc on this method, which is:
Returns the current HttpSession associated with this request or, if
necessary, creates a new session for the request. Use true for create to
create a new session, or false to return the current HttpSession.
So, getSession( true ) is always supposed to return the current session if
one exists -- it only creates a new session if the client does not have a
session.

There is a problem in Tomcat with the HttpServletRequest method
request.getSession(true)
The "true" parameter should force it to get a new session, according to
the javadoc page distributed by Sun with jsdk2.1. However, if a session
already exists, then that one will be returned rather than a new one.
I have been able to get around the problem with these lines:
session = request.getSession();
session.invalidate();
session = request.getSession(true);
but it looks to me like a bug.
(I am running Tomcat 3.1 with Apache 1.3.14 and Java 1.3 on Red Hat Linux
6.2.)
