Is your browser configured to accept cookies? If not, URL rewriting will be used for session management. As for actually having a session, by default any JSP page will create one. If you don't want it to, you need to use the page directive:
<%@ page session="false" %> Also, by using <c:url> with a relative URL, you're implicitly requesting URL rewriting. The fact that the <c:out> version still rewrites the URL doesn't make any sense, it doesn't do that. Try shutting down Tomcat, removing everything in $CATALINA_HOME/work/Standalone/localhost, and then restarting.
