In addition to my earlier response. The problem is,. you actually do
closed your session because if you try to invalidate the session again right
after your first invalidate you will get an invalidStateException (or
something)..... but if you do a forward to the next resource ... for some
reason the old session will get reactivate again.... the solution is to do a
redirect instead ...
