<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>JSP Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<%
session.getAttribute("username");

%>
hello
</body>
</html>

Hi,

Just change your session.setAttribute("username", out);

to

session.setAttribute("username", username);

This will set your session with user name.
