Are there any other services involved (JDBC, etc.) that are referenced by or
in the session, or where the sessions are dependent? Just wondering why TC
threads are invalidating the session...

Another option to test is add a line of code in your login process (whatever
establishes the HttpSession object) and manually set the timeout with the
HttpSession.setMaxInactiveInterval() method.  I believe this method
overrides any descriptor settings.

Of course, having said all of that, your descriptors should work as you have
specified.  Perhaps the "multiple applications" or other service timeout
descriptors are influencing the session timeouts...I've seen stranger things
happen...you might find this link useful as a test of your TC session
timeout setup... http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=127074

Subject: Help with session-timeout

Hi all.  I have a server with multiple applications running under Tomcat 5.5

In <TOMCAT_HOME>/conf/web.xml <session-timeout> is set to 30

In <TOMCAT_HOME>/webapps/myapp/WEB-INF/web.xml <session-timeout> is set to
-1 (infinite)

Users are being timed out of their sessions after 30 minutes as opposed to
never being timed out.  

Can anyone assist with this?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
