Last night we updated our tomcat server from 5.0.16 to 5.0.24. Suddenly,I have experienced a simmilar problem - it looks like the session was lost between the requests - in fact the problem was, that tomcat sets two cookies (for the root context and the application context) and it seems like it could not correctly handle thre response if those two cookies are sent back and starts a new session.
the web applications don't keep the same session between requests,
hereby rendering parts of our applications useless.
I solved this for now by adding the following line to the the <host element
<Context path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0" cookies="false"/>
the magic is to set the cookies=false on the root context. So the application context (/opsjs in our case) is the only which uses cookies.
I have seen this with Internet-Explorer and Mozilla - so it might be a tomcat problem??
Not sure - wanted to figured it out a bit more, but thought it might help you and so come out with this now.
