Hello, Using struts and tomcat to handle a file upload form, i noticed the following problem. If the browsers doesn't accept cookies or tomcat does not yet use cookies with the involved session (ie we are at first page so tomcat is still probing the browser), tomcat is unable to read the jsessionid from the url of the multipart/form-data encoded POST. Method request.getUserPrincipal() returns null. This does not happens if cookies are used (browser accept cookies and tomcat has finished probing the browser) or if the form is a non multipart one.
Does anyone knows how to, either - Have tomcat be able to extract jsessionid from url when it is a multipart POST - Have tomcat use exclusively cookies (no url rewriting) This is a big problem here as it prevent us to send emails with links to fileupload struts form where authentification is required.
