We have a JSF app with Trinidad and Facelets and we are using jspx views. With Jetty when we do logout and redirect to login page we can then login again with no problems. But with WAS 6.1 the login after the logout causes this:

com.ibm.io.async.ResultHandler$2.run(ResultHandler.java:873) at com.ibm.ws.util.ThreadPool$Worker.run(ThreadPool.java:1473) I think this is because WAS creates new session when we redirect to login page. So we should use <jsp:directive.page session=false /> ? Or am I way out with this? But when I tried to add session directive to the logout page it seems to have no effect... All ideas and/or hints are appreciated. S P.S. I remote debugged Was and the view is null in RestoreViewExecutor.
