HttpSession invalidate not working?

[Kenny Dilger]

For some reason when I invalidate a Session it does not seem to be working. If I have the following code.
session.invalidate();
session = request.getSession(true);
System.err.println("invalidated:" + session.getId());
forwardToPage("/mailapp/Login.jsp", request, response);
The Session ID printed out is the same session ID that was printed out when the session was first created. What could be going on. Could it be a problem at where I am declaring my HttpSession variable? I have another thread asking about HttpSession scope.
Thanks,
Kenny

works fine by me.
post your full code.

I fixed it. I think it had to do with the scoping of my HttpSession declaration. I was declaring it as an instance variable. I now have it local and pass it around to the necessary methods and all works fine.
Thanks!
