Our app running on Tomcat 5.0.28 has some kind of kluge involving a
flown-in vhosts.xml file in .../conf that uses aliases such that people
can have separate sessions of the same app on separate tabs. I have no
idea if this is how this should have been done back in the olden days
but more impo

Hi Stephen,
The approach we use was described in my original post. If you need more
information then I can explain further if it helps. Note, our approach
does require a bespoke tomcat request class (to change the session
cookie path) and this has not been without teething problems. Are you

Rob,
The way you describe session sharing is indeed a problem. The way we deal with
this is to use a separate database table to keep track of window ids. A unique
value is assigned when a window is opened and maintained until the window is
closed. Although the session may be the same for all
Hi Ronald,
Yes I was aware of that behaviour... Just for reference Firefox and
Google Chrome also share session logic so I am surprised this hasn't
been a problem for a lot more people. I am happy that my work around
solves the session sharing problem but would still prefer to go down the
dynamic
Rob,
IE 6 is even more confusing. If you open a new window with ctrl-N you have the
same session sharing as with tabs. Only if you click the IE6-icon to start a
new instance of the process it will not share them. Opening a new tab in IE7 is
like using ctrl-n to open a new window in IE6.

Hi Chris,
Is there any way to dynamically create these contexts or do they require a
live.xml, test.xml, etc within conf/Catalina/localhost. The multiple contexts
would be my preferred approach although I would like to achieve this with a
single code base if this is possible. The multiple envir

Hi,
Ok. I didn't understand that somebody chooses an environment dynamicly.
The JSESSION cookie is tight to a host
You can run your test environment on another hostname.
live.example.com
test.example.com
train.example.com
Maybe use a login.example.com to redirect you to the right url after login.
Ronald.

You can run your test environment on another hostname.
live.example.com
test.example.com
train.example.com
Maybe use a login.example.com to redir
ver a virtual context as part of the final solution.
Kind Regards,

Hi,
Ok. I didn't understand tha
application dynamically creates these environments. The application is
not internet facing if that makes a difference.
