I wasn't using PersistentManager or any of the Store implementations in my tests (only the StandardManager support for persisting across restarts).

RE: Tracking active sessions over a restart?
I'm using Tomcat 4.1.9 and no, I'm not seeing at all what I expect. I have a class that implements HttpSessionListener, HttpSessionAttributeListener, and HttpSessionActivationListener and logs these events. But I'm not receiving the sessionDidActivate() event just mentioned. I can stop and restart Tomcat--with my session intact, but I don't receive any event telling me that there was a session activated. Scott P.S. Here's another weird thing: A new session is spontaneously created once per minute (in response to no stimulus on my part) while Tomcat is sitting "idle": 2002-08-13 14:48:17,373 DEBUG [Thread-4 ] Request - sessionCreated: org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade@14257f 2002-08-13 14:48:41,928 DEBUG [FileStore] Request - sessionCreated: org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade@3e75a5 2002-08-13 14:49:42,065 DEBUG [FileStore] Request - sessionCreated: org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade@d0b0f 2002-08-13 14:50:42,211 DEBUG [FileStore] Request - sessionCreated: org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade@30de2e 2002-08-13 14:51:42,247 DEBUG [FileStore] Request - sessionCreated: org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade@40b8a0 etc., etc... > -Original Message- > From: Craig R.

Tracking active sessions over a restart?
I'm confused over the appropriate way to track user sessions across restarts of the servlet engine. I've been using SessionListeners and AttributeListeners to track the status of user sessions in my application, but I've found them to be unreliable when I restart Tomcat and persistent sessions are enabled. Is there a way to ensure that I can track the correct list of active sessions regardless of restarts, etc? Thanks, Scott
