What causes javax.faces.application.ViewExpiredException
Environment: Web container: Tomcat6.0.18, JSF1.2 + Richfaces/Ajax4JSF + Facelets + Spring + Ibatis
There is a strange problem in my web application, the problem is:
There is not session timeout, but the "javax.faces.application.ViewExpiredException" often be thrown when using this web application in internet environment, however in the intranet anything is well, I don't know why.
Except for session timeout, whether there are any other cases that cause this exception?
1. When not session timeout, the exception stack look like this: [I don't know why the exception is thrown]
