---------------------------------------
Summary: External session id differs from internal session id
Key: FELIX-5812
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5812
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HTTP Service
Affects Versions: http.jetty-3.4.8, http.base-3.0.18
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
Fix For: http.base-4.0.0, http.jetty-4.0.0
With the addition of the http whiteboard support, the session id returned is
the session id from the container plus the internal context id. As the http
whiteboard manager needs to manage different contexts within the context from
the container, the session objects need to be different as well. Therefore the
implementation is currently using a different id for each of these sessions.
However, this creates a difference between the internal session id and the one
from the container and might lead to problems with session replication
solutions or even creating links containing the session id as this session id
is unknown to the container.
There is nothing in the specification preventing us from using the same session
id for different sessions. As all of these are bound to the same container
session with the same id, this should be fine and avoids the problems mentioned
above.
