Problem with session management using Struts 1.0

[Gilbert Tan <Gi...@crimsonlogic.com>]

Hi,
 
I am new to Struts framework.
I am encountering the following problem with the session management.
Whenever my Action starts, I will check for the existence of a session
object using the following code:
HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);
If the session object is null, I will redirect the user to the login
page.
But the code is not working as expected. The session object that is
returned is always not null.
I am tried the same code using a normal servlet and it works as
expected.
Does anybody knows why?
Thanks.
