Hello,
perhaps this is a problem caused by the cookie manager?

I encounter a rather strange behaviour involving JMeter (2.0.2   on JKD 
1.4.2_05) and Tomcat (4.1.18.0).
*Sometimes* in my load test the session is being invalidated after the login.

With low load (<= 10 Threads) the tests run without problems.
With higher loads all threads are successful with the first request (login) but 
some of them (about 15%) fail in the second request because of an invalid 
session.

Investigating the requests and the responses I have concluded that
1. In threads that perform timely adjucent logins exactly the same sessionids 
are received.
2. When these threads perform the second request, they send another sessionid. 
These new sessionids differ from each other and do not belong to any earlier 
thread.

Example (simplified):
Thread            sessionid in Login/Response         Sessionid in 
CustomerSelect/request
1           101                           101 (OK)
2           102                           102 (OK)
3           103                           500 (not OK)
4           103 (same as in #3)                 600 (not OK)

My questions:
- What might be the cause of the identical sessionids for the different threads?
   Is it a know problem in either JMeter or Tomcat?
- Why does JMeter send a fake sessionid?

One idea was that the concurrent logins might count as one login trial because 
of the KeepAlive flag.
I have turned the KeepAlive flag from the login request off, but this did not 
help.

Does anybody have further ideas?

Thanks in advance!

P.S.
Of course I use the cookie manager in my testplan and do not manipulate the 
sessionid in the testplan.
