Interesting. You are right. A trivial jsp with only text inside produces a session. I am fairly certain I have seen servlets (not JSPs) behaving without any session tracking at all.

So, maybe it's the result of the fact that I'm using a JSP. If that's the case, then Tomcat is, in a sense, creating sessions. Anyway, I think the context configuration that I had: <Context path="/app"> <Manager maxInactiveInterval="6"/> </Context> conflicts with the default session-config from conf/web.xml <session-config> <session-timeout>30</session-timeout> </session-config> I added: <session-config> <session-timeout>1</session-timeout> </session-config> to my app, and that's good enough for me.
