There is no synchronization provided by container for the session object. If multiple threads attempt to access an object stored in the session and modify the value, it’s up to the developer to provide synchronization. There is no automatic synchronization provided by the session. Is there any known standard mechanism to do it?

I don't think there is any other way than using synchornized methods or blocks.

I also do not understand what java.io.serializable has to do with synchronization of session variables.

The Java Ranch has thousands of visitors every week, many with surprisingly similar names. To avoid confusion we have a naming convention, described at JavaRanch's naming policy. . We require names to have at least two words, separated by a space, and strongly recommend that you use your full real name. Please change to a new name which meets the requirements.
Thanks.

Interstingly I too have this session problem. I have a HTML frame contains 2 JSPs. When I access session values from both the pages, its throwing LockTimedOutException.
I think it has something to do with session synchronization.
