Dear All:
I'm running tomcat 5.5.20 on a redhat 8 linux server (Linux
ruready.utah.edu 2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp #1 SMP Thu Aug 17 18:00:32 EDT 2006
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux).
My web application manages its own session pool. Every time a user logs
into the site, a session is created and stored
in a synchronized map of user ID, session ID. When a user logs out, the
session is invalidated and removed from the map.
When tomcat destroys a session, the user is logged out.
The problem: some times users log in and then close their browser window
(at least I assume so), but tomcat never
destroys their session. The session-timeout parameter is set to 30 in
web.xml. I tried it with session-timeout = 1 on my
windows development box, and then it worked -- tomcat did destroy the
session after it's been idle for 1 minute.
Is it a known linux bug, or is it something in my code? Is there a way
to force sessions to be destroyed without
writing a thread to look for idle sessions every some time and
invalidate them?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Oren
