That is exactly my problem. The application server does not send a new JSESSIONID back to browser as long as a JSESSIONID cookie came with the original request, even I specifically invalidate session and create a new one.
What is work-around? Do we have a way to block JSESSIONID cookie come to my specific URL/action?
