Hi,

I have a loginServlet and i am doing a response.sendRedirect. something like

if (responseCode == 302)
 {
 response.sendRedirect(contextPath + "/login.jsp");

 }
 else
 {
 response.sendRedirect(contextPath + "/login.jsp?status=\"error\"");
 }

In login.jsp we are doing

<%
 if(request.getRemoteUser() != null){
 response.sendRedirect("test/welcome.jsp");
 }
%>

When i try to login to the application by giving the http://localhost:8080/test/login.jsp page, it is working fine. I am redirected to welcome page if username and password are correct or else redirected to the same login page.

The problem is that when i give the url as http://localhost:8080/test/ say http://localhost:8080/test/welcome.jsp then first the login page is displayed ( which is correct ). when i give the correct username and password also, again the same login page is displayed. I have to refresh the page to go to the welcome page.
Why is it behaving in such a way. and most importantly what is the solution to over this problem. (without using META tag in my JSP).

Please respond immediately as it is very urgent.

Thanks in advance,
Bhupesh.
