Logout problem on JBoss AS 5.1

[jervisliu]

Hi, my application is Seam 2.1.0 GA based, everything works fine on JBoss AS 4.3. However, log out does not work anymore when I move to JBoss AS 5.1. A "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot create a session after the response has been committed" exception is thrown after logout. See below:

My logout.jsp is as below:

<%
        org.jboss.seam.Seam.invalidateSession();
    String redirectURL = "Guvnor.html";
    response.sendRedirect(redirectURL);
%>

I also tried

<%
        org.jboss.seam.security.Identity.instance().logout();
    String redirectURL = "Guvnor.html";
    response.sendRedirect(redirectURL);
%>

Still same exception.  The sendRedirect is not the cause as well, as I removed sendRedirect, same problem exists.

I also upgraded to Seam 2.1.2GA and 2.2.0GA, does not help. Same problem.

Can someone shed some light please on what may cause this problem? Is this a Seam problem or I did sth wrong in my application?

have you tried?

public class LogOutServlet extends HttpServlet {

        protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
                request.getSession().invalidate();
        }
}
