Is the code executed? Meaning, do you see the "u null" in the log file?

Whats the location of the redirected File?

Assuming its in same directory as the jsp file then use

 response.sendRedirect("AccountLogin.do");   

From Servlet API
the servlet container must convert the relative URL to an absolute URL before sending the response to the client. If the location is relative without a leading '/' the container interprets it as relative to the current request URI. If the location is relative with a leading '/' the container interprets it as relative to the servlet container root.

Hope it helps
