[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-3070) Tomcat not cleaning up HttpSessions after a single FeedServlet request

[Christian Bauer (JIRA)]

    [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3070?page=comments#action_12415595 ] 
            
Christian Bauer commented on JBSEAM-3070:
-----------------------------------------

The problem disappears (or it seems to disappear) after I removed <web:context-filter/> from components.xml and wrap the request as follows in the servlets:

    protected void doGet(final HttpServletRequest request, final HttpServletResponse response)
            throws ServletException, IOException {
        new ContextualHttpServletRequest(request) {
            @Override
            public void process() throws Exception {
                doWork(request, response);
            }
        }.run();
    }

> Only reproducible in production: The number of HttpSessions is growing over several days. I wrote a listener and it shows the following pattern:
> <User> <Action> <Creation timestamp> <Last access timestamp> <Idle> <Expired since>

> The EXPIRED! sessions are alive past their maxInactiveInterval (see the time next to it). Tomcat does not clean them up and I don't know why. The only recognizable pattern is that they are all from the FeedServlet, and a single request to that servlet. At this point I suspect that something in Seams ContextualRequest filter is wrong and influencing Tomcat negatively. Will keep this assigned to the wiki until the cause is clearer.
