extra sidenote to this that is odd.

This user can access OTHER requests and pages protected by the constraint, just 
not this particular one!! 

What would give there?

Subject: strange session behavior!


Ok,
 
I've had an app running in place just fine for several months now.
 
All of a sudden, I've got some weird happenings.
 
I'll preface my problem by saying that I had added an extra security constraint 
to the file. If I need to show that code for assistance, I'll pass it along 
later.
 
But long story short, most people's userIDs are working fine, as associated 
with their roles and email addresses (a column I added).
 
I'm using this code for part of my app:
 
String juser = request.getRemoteUser();
request.getSession().setAttribute("juser",juser);
String jusertwo = (String) request.getSession().getAttribute("juser");
out.println("Juserval is: "+juser);
out.println("Jusertwo is: "+jusertwo);
 
When I look at the screen (browser console), for most users I've tested, I see 
it set just fine.
 
For one particular user, it is breaking and looking like this:

Juserval is: TG39054 Jusert
It's odd, because it's breaking for this one user, EVEN though I've changed 
both their email address and USERid.
 
I have no idea what could be causing this. I did add one user with a totally 
different role than that of what had been included before, and the other 
person's ID with the new role did appear directly before this person with the 
problem. Could a hashmap in another app affect this? I wouldn't think it would 
directly. Especially if I've changed the person's userID and email address.
It is so strange.
 
FWIW, I am using TC 4.1.31.
 
Let me know if any other XML attributes or other code is needed.
 
Thanks!
 
Barry
