David,
Thanks a lot for your help.
My browser accepts cookies. Actually I inspected the cookies as well as the
session object when I was debugging. The cookies is a valid array with valid
sessionId inside and the method isRequestedSessionIdFromCookie() returns true
as long as the http session object is valid. But when the session got lost, the
cookies became to null and the method isRequestedSessionIdFromCookie() returns
false.
The links are the paths defined in the struct-config.xml file. The jsessionid
is still valid when the session get lost.
Here is how the code looks like in the LogInAction:
MyObject myObj = new MyObject();
myObj.setAbc("Abc");
myObj,setDef("Def");
HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
session.setAttribute(MySessionName, myObj);
Here is how the code looks like in the following actions:
MyObject myObj = (MyObject)request.getSession(true).getAttribute(MySessionName);
I have a FrontController servlet class to hand request and response. When a
link on the welcome page got clicked, I noticed that in the FrontController
servlet class, the session in the request became to null via eclipse's
debugging tool. (Before this point, the session is all valid.) Then in the
following action class, a new standard session got created. So my personal
session information totally lost.
Anything else I shall try?
Thanks so much!

Check these:
1. Your browser is accepting cookies
2. Your links are being generated by taglibs that insure the jsessionid
is attached if needed. I say if needed because if tomcat is getting a
valid session cookie from your browser, the jsessionid won't be added to
the link.
They don't both have to be done, but chances of eliminating errors are
best if they are. Beyond that, I would have to suspect the way you are
trying to access the session attributes either in setting them or in
retrieving them. Could you post code snippets that show how you are
setting and retrieving attributes?
