Web Sphere SESSION MANAGEMENT

[Mahesh Eshwarappa]

Hi,

WE r having problems in maintaining sessions in websphere.
During a multi user test of our software on the internet we noticed that the session of one user was getting transferred to the other user. We are maintaining a session variable which will be accessed in each page to return the user a user specific information Now that the session id itself is getting changed somewhere.
If anybody has worked on a similar problem Please do get in touch.

Thanks,
MAhesh

I'm having a similar problem, using websphere 5.0 on NT, with struts. I've turned on both of these diagnostic traces
com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.httpsession.SessionContext
com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.httpsession.SessionMgrComponentImpl
and they've given me diddley squat. I've tried cookie based and URL based session management, that hasn't done anything. For a while I suspected it was a multithreaded issue, so I set websphere to serialize thread access. Nada.
Did you ever solve your problem? Does this ring any bells?

Hello,
We have the same issue using WebSphere 5 on RedHat Linux.
We are using a session bean to keep information. Suddenly the session of one user is associated to another user coming from absolutely different machine (ip). WAS Session menagement security is set to be associate to HTTP session, but nothing comes better. Now we applied fixpack 5.0.2, not having yet enough info is it works better.
This technique we were using for 2 years on JRun and eveything was just fine.
On any result I shall post them here asap.
Regards,
