Are you creating a basic authentication or form based authentication ? -----Original Message----- From: Hendrik Neumann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 May 2005 14:11 To: tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org Subject: Tomcat totally ignores my timeout-settings
Hi everybody, I have the following problem: I have created and registered an HttpSessionListener which sets the MaxInactiveInterval to 120 seconds in the sessionCreated-method, whenever a new session is created. Then I have System.out.println("session is killed") in the sessionDestroyed-method of this listener. But the sessionDestroyed-method is never called and the session is NEVER killed. I have also a <session-config> <session-timeout>2</session-timeout> </session-config> in my web.xml but this doesn't help ether. What am I doing wrong? Why doesn't tomcat kill my session, why does it ignore my settings? The following is a small part from my logfile. As you can see, the timeout is never called by tomcat (look at the time-values). The session is only destroyed if the user uses the logout-button: ############## /var/log/messages/tomcat5/ catalina.out ################### new session-object created, # '9A8DC55C6B8043AA6BE12E9027699C64' -> CreationTime (DD.MM.YY HH:MM): 18.05.05 14:11 -> MaxInactiveInterval: 120 seconds -> Web-Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.4; Linux 2.6.11-gentoo-r8; X11; i686; de) KHTML/3.4.0 (like Gecko) logged in: admin (Administrator, 11)', from session-id '9A8DC55C6B8043AA6BE12E9027699C64' -> Time (DD.MM.YY HH:MM): 18.05.05 14:15 admin (Administrator, 9A8DC55C6B8043AA6BE12E9027699C64) manually logs out! -> Time (DD.MM.YY HH:MM): 18.05.05 14:20 session destroyed for 9A8DC55C6B8043AA6BE12E9027699C64 (username: admin) ############################################ What can I do to solve this problem?
