Issue trying to share http session between war apps in the same ear file

[marcosfilho]

Hello guys,

I'm working on wildfly 9.0.0.Alpha1 and am trying to share the http session between 2 sample webapps(war) in the same ear.

I have an ear file with the following structure:

app.ear  

    app1.war

    app2.war

    META-INF/

    META-INF/MANIFEST.MF

    META-INF/jboss-all.xml

note: I have attached the ear file in case you want to check it out

This ear file has been deployed successfully and I can access the pages from /app1 and /app2 via browser.

However, from the app2 I can not grab the data inserted by the app1 into the session.

I have configured the file jboss-all.xml as per documentation:

Web (Undertow) Reference Guide - WildFly 9 - Project Documentation Editor

my jsp code insert data into the session like this(/app1/index.jsp):

session.setAttribute("test.name", "Test Attribute List");

  session.setAttribute("test.float", new Float(5.0));

  session.setAttribute("test.int", new Integer(10));

  session.setAttribute("test.Object", new StringBuffer("StringBuffer"));

  session.setAttribute("test.boolean", new Boolean(true));

  session.setAttribute("test.double", new Double(343.1));

and i print  the session date like this:

for (Enumeration e = session.getAttributeNames(); e.hasMoreElements(); ) {    

    String attribName = (String) e.nextElement();

    Object attribValue = session.getAttribute(attribName);

%>

<BR><%= attribName %> - <%= attribValue %>

<%

}

%>

The problem is:  app2 cant access the session data inserted by app1(and also the other way around).

I would appreciate very much any help.

Cheers,

Marcos

How old is you snapshot of master?  We have tests that verify this behavior - so there must be something mis-configured somewhere.

i cloned  and built it two days ago.

I didnt change any configuration of Wildfly. The only thing I did was set up the jboss-all.xml under the WEB-INF of my ear file.

Is the content of jboss-all.xml  correct?

<jboss umlns="urn:jboss:1.0">     <shared-session-config xmlns="urn:jboss:shared-session-config:1.0">         <session-config>             <cookie-config>                 <path>/</path>             </cookie-config>         </session-config>     </shared-session-config> </jboss>

With this configuration, all contexts(wars in the same ear) will have access to the same session(HttpSession)?

I just checked the test cases on https://github.com/stuartwdouglas/wildfly/commit/3c3fe8c82b93c9c32ae02496398910c7349f4351

it seems to be exactly what Im doing. Im going to double check everything.

Please let me know if you have tips for me.

Cheers,

Correct.  And your configuration looks fine to me.
