Do I understand it right, that you made it a reproduceable testcase?
If so, can we have a look on it?

thank you

Thanks Chuck.

I have done some further research and I have the impression that there is
some kind of race condition where a session that is being removed because of
a timeout is also handling requests.

The loggings indicate that a session is destroyed but then nevertheless a
doGet is invoked with a request parameter that refers to that timed out
session.

If I crank up the timeout, seriously reducing the chances a session times
out before it has completed all the client requests it is supposed to handle
during the test, the problem does no longer occur.

I am not sure where that leaves me. I am still uncertain as to what the
servlet is doing wrong.

Would you (or anyone else) have any other comments on this?

Thanks,

Peter
