Hallo!
For starting my application the User asks for a special start-url. During the render-phase at a request for this start-url in a certain case I recognize that the user wants a anonymous logon. In this case I set value of a session bean 'mbUser.name=anonymous' and forward the user to another URL. Generally in my application I accept a request, if the sessionscoped value 'mbUser.name' is set. (So I know that the user had logged on sucessfully.) This works very well since some months. But now when I do so with a safari-browser after the redirect the session scoped value mbUser.name is lost and the application will deny an access. A customer told me he has the same effect with Internet Explorer Version 8, but I can only reproduce this problem with safari. There is another logon mechanism to this application that works without redirect. In this way the session scoped values are not lost and the application can be used. So the problem is: The value of a sessionscoped Bean is lost after redirecting the reqest (only) when using a Safari browser. For redirecting I call: ...getFacesContext().getExternalContext().redirect(newUrl); Can anybody give me a hint? Thanks Georg
