Re: http session lost between struts action
Check these: 1. Your browser is accepting cookies 2. Your links are being generated by taglibs that insure the jsessionid is attached if needed.

Re: http session lost between struts action
Don't know if it is related, but a note on an issue in session tracking we got here (an how we soluced it) We got the following scenario: 1) someone get a link to a struts form in an email 2) He get to the page by clicking on link 3) The page is in a 'secure' area, meaning he gets a popup from browser for the basic-auth 4) User login in and see the form (This is the first time tomcat send a webpage in this session) 5) User fills the form and submit 6) in the Action, request.getUserPrincipal() returns null Diagnostic: session is lost at the second request (that is when tomcat will check if cookies is supported) Reason: it seems tomcat does not parse the ;JSESSIONID= par of url when the form is multipart (for file uploads) Solution: have to user go to an intermediate redirect page before *and* have the browser with cookies enabled Le Lundi 27 Juin 2005 15:56, angelina zh a écrit : Jack, I dont understand why you keep saying there is nothing worng.

Re: http session lost between struts action
David, Thanks a lot for your help. My browser accepts cookies. Actually I inspected the cookies as well as the session object when I was debugging. The cookies is a valid array with valid sessionId inside and the method isRequestedSessionIdFromCookie() returns true as long as the http session object is valid. But when the session got lost, the cookies became to null and the method isRequestedSessionIdFromCookie() returns false. The links are the paths defined in the struct-config.xml file. The jsessionid is still valid when the session get lost. Here is how the code looks like in the LogInAction: MyObject myObj = new MyObject(); myObj.setAbc(Abc); myObj,setDef(Def); HttpSession session = request.getSession(true); session.setAttribute(MySessionName, myObj); Here is how the code looks like in the following actions: MyObject myObj = (MyObject)request.getSession(true).getAttribute(MySessionName); I have a FrontController servlet class to hand request and response. When a link on the welcome page got clicked, I noticed that in the FrontController servlet class, the session in the request became to null via eclipse's debugging tool.

RE: http session lost between struts action
Well the issue is
request.getSession(true)
Try something like
MyObject myObj = new MyObject();
myObj.setAbc(Abc);
myObj,setDef(Def);
HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);
If ( session == null ) {
session = request.getSession(true);
}
session.setAttribute(MySessionName, myObj);
HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);
If ( session != null ) {
MyObject myObj =
(MyObject)request.getSession(true).getAttribute(MySessionName);
}
Because HttpSession session = request.getSession(true); will always create a

RE: http session lost between struts action
I thought that at first too Guru, I had to go remind myself... looking at
the javadoc for request.getSession(boolean)...
Returns the current HttpSession associated with this request or, if there
is no current session and create is true, returns a new session.
That OR, IF clause is whats important.. it should only create a new
session if none already exists. So, calling getSession(true) is going to
return to you a session either way, whether it's a pre-existing one or a
new one.
I do however agree that calling getSession(true) in this case does not
seem appropriate... Angelina, I would call it with false and check for
null, as Guru says. It probably won't solve the problem, but it will tell
you a little bit more, namely whether the session really exists or not in
a more explicit manner.

Thank you guys so much for the comments. But I forget to mention that the code

So neither was working for me.

You might want to setup the Request Dumper Valve (*org.apache.catalina.valves.RequestDumperValve*.) and see if that offer's any insight. I suspect the cookie isn't being returned in subsequent requests after the welcome page. Unfortunately, I don't have enough info about your setup to even begin theorizing why that might happen. --David angelina zh wrote: Frank, Guru Thank you guys so much for the comments.

http session lost between struts action
Hi, Can anyone please help me on this session lost issue? Here is the problem I am getting: -- If I open a IE 6.0 browser and log into the web site we are developing, I get into a welcome page with a few of link options. In the login action class, we set some attributes into the session. If I click on any of the links, I got null pointer exception in next action class when we try to get attributes from the session. I tried to use Eclipse to debug, noticed that the session of the request after the welcome page became to null. --If I keep that browser open and go to the log in page again. After I log in, I get into the welcome page and if I click any of the links now, the session of the request is not null and I can go to any links without any problem. The null pointer did not occur in the following action class. --If I close the browser then open browser again, I get NullPointerException again if I repeat those steps. What might be wrong? Thanks so much in advance. Angelina - Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries. Sign up for Fantasy Football

The null pointer did not occur in the following action class. Seems that session was not established when you accessed the link from the welcome page. Are you sure that this page is generated by action class, or from a JSP page with cleared session attribute of page directive? You can use static HTML welcome page, if: * you forward to it from action class or JSP, and * you created session object in the action class or JSP, or * you do not clear session attribute of page directive Session is created in action class, if you access session object and set it to auto-create, if session is not there yet. Session is created in JSP, if you do not explicitly clear session attribute of page directive; by default session attribute is set.
