I've finally pinned this one down: it's bug 504, reported at:
http://nagoya.betaversion.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=504
Basically, the session is getting wiped out when it is forwarded under exactly
the wrong circumstances. The stack overflow is because you are recursively
forwarding: sessiontest2 forwards to sessiontest which then forwards to
sessiontest2 again. If all goes well this is fine, but because of a bug in Tomcat
the recursion never terminates.
I've fixed this, it should go into the upcoming 3.2.2release. Stay tuned.
Out of curiosity, are the recursive forwards really necessary? Can't
you just put the code from sessiontest into a normal class file? It
would be safer and cleaner.
