Concurrent requests; one invalidates the session, results in recursive loop of session creation
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-4487
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4487
Project: Seam
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.2.0.GA, 2.2.0.CR1, 2.1.2.GA, 2.1.2.CR2, 2.1.2.CR1, 2.1.1.GA
Environment: Jboss 4.2.2 with shipped Tomcat on Linux.
Reporter: dave atkins
I noticed that we had an massive number of sessions on one of our tomcat nodes that hosts our modest Seam app. After some investigation I discovered this in the log
2009-11-25 17:38:02,521 INFO [org.jboss.seam.contexts.Contexts] starting up: org.jboss.seam.web.session 2009-11-25 17:38:02,522 INFO [org.jboss.seam.contexts.Contexts] starting up: org.jboss.seam.security.identity 2009-11-25 17:38:02,522 INFO [org.jboss.seam.contexts.Contexts] starting up: org.jboss.seam.web.session 2009-11-25 17:38:02,522 INFO [org.jboss.seam.contexts.Contexts] starting up: org.jboss.seam.security.identity 2009-11-25 17:38:02,522 INFO [org.jboss.seam.contexts.Contexts] starting up: org.jboss.seam.web.session
This is repeated for thousands of lines. After digging around the seam code I realised that if you have two concurrent requests and one invalidates the session before the other is finished, seam goes into an recursive loop of session creation (normally ended by stack overflow). Here's a stack trace showing two recursions.

This problem is partially documented here - https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2888, unfortunately this bugfix didn't solve the root cause of the problem.
The problem is caused by the SessionMap used by ServerConversationContext. Internally the session map uses HttpServletRequest.getSession(true) to retrieve the session, which creates a new session if the one defined on the HttpServletRequest is invalid or null. Unfortunately, when the new session is created session listeners are informed before the session has been set on the HttpServletRequest. Seam is one of these session listeners and creates a new Identity on session creation, which in turn accesses the SessionMap, still before the new Session has been set on the request. This leads to an infinite recursive loop.
The SessionMap used is returned by externalContext.getSessionMap(). One solution could be to implement our own SessionMap that doesn't attempt to create a new session if the current session is invalid or null, although I've no idea how this would impact on other Seam code.
The problem is relatively easy to create. In our application we have a search page that can take quite a while to complete a request. If we log out of the application in another tab before the search has completed the problem arises.
We are using seam 2.1.1.GA. I've looked at the source code for the latest release and it appears that the problem will still occur due to use of SessionMap.
Out current workaround is to add a ThreadLocal to Identity.create that counts recursive calls. If more then two recursive calls are detected an IllegalProcessState exception is thrown. This isn't definitely isn't a permanent solution, but stops our server creating 100,000 sessions.

[JBoss JIRA] (JBSEAM-4862) Seam Remoting GWT support not being skipped in AS 7.0.2
by Joshua Davis (Created) (JIRA)
Seam Remoting GWT support not being skipped in AS 7.0.2
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-4862
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBSEAM-4862
Project: Seam 2
Issue Type: Bug
Environment: JBoss AS 7.0.2.Final
EAR deployment of Seam 2.2.0
Reporter: Joshua Davis
When deploying a Seam 2.2.0 EAR in JBoss AS 7.0.2.Final, the Seam Remoting GWT support components are not disabled in a nice way. Seam's scanner is trying to instantiate these components, even though the GWT classes are not available, resulting in a {{java.lang.LinkageError}}.
* The application is deployed as an EAR.
* {{jboss-seam.jar}} is in the root directory of the EAR, and is declared as an EJB module in {{META-INF/application.xml}}.
* {{jboss-seam-remoting.jar}} is in the {{lib}} directory of the EAR, along with all the other Seam 2 jars.
When JBoss AS 7 is deploying the application, the Seam 2 scanner is looking for components in {{lib/jboss-seam-remoting.jar}}. It finds {{GWT14Service}} and {{GWTToSeamAdapter}}, _even though_ these two components are declared with {{@Install(..., classDependencies= ...)}}.
Removing the the {{org.jboss.seam.remoting.gwt}} package from {{jboss-seam-remoting.jar}} made the problem go away.
