The session is created.
I create it with
session=req.getSession(true);
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(3600);
after a user has performed successfull login.
Then for his further requests I do
session=request.getSession(false);
if (session==null) => user not authorized because session is not valid anymore
else => get data from session and perform further action
If I test this 'session' will not be 'null': the session is created.
But it will only not be 'null' for subsequent requests that arrive not more than
about 10s apart!
But I set the MaxInactiveInterval to 1 hour (=3600s)??
