why session have session id after session timeout in jsp? - java

Hi in jsp of JavaScript i am checking userdId in session or not it always have session id if session expires also, but i checked in java Action class after session expires userid is null but not in jsp. code link

Try alerting the sessionId in your javascript code. You will find that the sessionId is different after the old one has expired.
Also check what the code is doing when a new session is created. It might be setting the userid in the new session.

JAVA SESSION Cookie issue

I want my web application to resume its session when the browser is restarted. So I had use the following code in cookie Filter to create SESSION cookie for any request other than login and logout.
HttpSession browserSession = httpRequest.getSession();
Cookie cookie = new Cookie("SESSION", browserSession.getId());
cookie.setMaxAge(Integer.MAX_VALUE);
httpResponse.addCookie(cookie);
If I login to my appl and restart the browser and access url, it's getting login automatically (as expected). But if I logout in that session and then try to login in that session, it's not getting logged in. What's causing this issue?
when i fetch cookies from request(httpRequest.getCookies()), i get 2 cookies with SESSION name , one is browser created and one is which my code created but while debuging both are having the same max age i.e -1 when i set my cookie max age as Integer.MaxValue()?? why is this happening
You can try deleting the coockie when logged out, this way user will be identified by the coockie created while logging in and will be valid for a session (from login to logout) and as soonest as user logs out earlier coockie will be deleted.

Why java session.getAttribute() value null while accessing ionic1

On server side I'm using Java and on the client side Ionic1.
I'm setting Java object to session like this:
session.setAttribute("userId", userObj.getUserId());
After setting session i need to get that session in another method, that time I'm using like this
Long userId = (Long) session.getAttribute("userId");
Here if i send request from mobile to server I will get session.getAttribute value.
But I sent request from browser to server that time I will get session.getAttribute value is NULL
Make sure you are calling the getAttribute() only after the session has been created. Its a common mistake to access the session attributes when no session exists.
Basically, validate and make sure session exists and that the attribute value has been set in the application flow before trying to get the session attributes.
HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
// true will create a session is does not already exists
if(session != null) {
// get your session attributes here.
// Your Session Attributes should be set before you're trying to access them
}

Get Information About Inavlidated HttpServletRequest Session

I want to differentiate between:
New session created by time-out of previous session.
A new session created by opening the page in new session of a browser.
Is there a way I can identify these two in a new HTTPServeletRequest?
You can implement SessionListener and manage to get new session and old session mapping,
However to decide where to redirect upon new login (as you commented)
you should store referrer header in session
For example:
after session has been destroyed
user gets redirected to login page
get the referrer header put it in session and on successful login read it from session and redirect there

java sessions - when does a session actually gets created?

my code,
HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);
// Details.l.info(" 1>>>>session ID is : " + session.getId());
Details.l.info("["+this.getClass()+"]"+"request from "+request.getRemoteHost());
if(session==null){
session = request.getSession(true);
Details.l.info("["+this.getClass()+"]"+"Session Created!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#####$####");
Details.l.info(" 2>>>>>session ID is : " + session.getId());
}
Details.l.info(" 3>>>>>session ID is : " + session.getId());
// System.out.println("session ID is : " + session.getId());
Details DTO = new Details(request);
String loc = DTO.findMyLocation();
session.invalidate();
here, i am creating a session at the very beginning of the servlet with a logic that if the session already exists, then give hat session ID for that particular user or if a session does not exist for this particular user, please create a new session and then give the new session ID, here the new session is created inside the IF condition and i have tested in all possible ways (i have used two different systems and tried hitting to the servlet on one system too) but the control never gets into this loop where the session is getting created. but i see every time i hit to the servlet i get a new session ID!!! can someone please exlain this behavior of my servlet?? i am very new to sessions and servlets!!
Thanks in Advance..
JSPs implicitely create a session, unless session is set to false in the page directive:
<%# page session="false" %>
That's why your servlet always sees an already existing session. Simply enter the address of the servlet in the browser address bar (provided the code you posted is in the doGet() method), instead of going through the JSP to invoke it, and you should see the servlet create a new session.
EDIT: note that the spec says about this session attribute that it can be used to specify that the JSP doesn't participate in the session. Nothing guarantees that no session will be created when invoking the JSP. Only that, if you try to access the session from this JSP, you'll get an exception.
You may want to use request.getSession(true) to always create a session.

How to make session in Java?

I need make sessions in Java web application.
I found that sesstion makes in servlet calass by method getSession().
But i have a question about session parameters. For example i send to server login/pass and save it into session atributes. Okey. Next time i do something on client and send new params to server. Where i gonna send it? In another or same and i gonna use if else for handle params like this?
Another question: How to use params which i put in session(login/pass) in another classes?
UPDATE
I read about sessions. And have new question. How to use session params in enother class. I mean after login i send new params on server, read it in servlet and want to take a login/pass from session and send it with new params into another class.
As part of your request handling in a doGet or doPost method, here is how you can get session and use it to get and set variables.
//Obtain the session object, create a new session if doesn't exist
HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
//set a string session attribute
session.setAttribute("MySessionVariable", "MySessionAtrValue");
//get a string sessson attribute
String strParam = session.getAttribute("MySessionVariable");
//get an integer sessioin attribute
Integer param = (Integer) session.getAttribute("MySessionVariable");
//set an integer session attribute
session.setAttribute("MySessionVariable", new Integer(param.intValue() + 1));
Session is associated with each request . Now it depends whether client join the session or not there are three overloaded methods of getSession() to get more about them please go through the documents. Now if session is aleady associated with the request get existing session set the attribute in session and vice-versa if not create new session and do the same.
if the server used only cookie-based sessions, and the client had disabled the use of cookies, then a session would be new on each request.
I hope this helped.
