Paths, Directories, Cookies: How do you get a session, or a file?
After using Tomcat for over a year, one thing I still can't get straight is
how directories are resolved. I would love it if someone could point me to a
reference that ties together the context in server.xml, mod_jk mounts, and
web.xml mappings, particularly with regard to an Apache front end.
I would love this reference in general, because I have lots of questions in
this regard, but immediately I am particularly interested in the way Tomcat
stores and resolves its session cookies. Why would a filter I have written
will give a correct session with the uri /app-name/members/trbmsg.jsp, but a
null session with the uri /app-name/members/logout.jsp?
TIA,
anw

Hmm! That's true, the jsp page a sendRedirect then does the invalidate, but
sometimes it does get a session. Why wouldn't the jsp page be checked by the
filter before it ever started executing? Could it be a race condition?

cause your logout.jsp probably does a session.invalidate() :)
