It's probably not a Tomcat issue. See my point below: > >I have a problem with session tracking.

Cookies are enabled in the browser. That is correct behaviour (probably). The first session is being created between the servlet and the client in the "context1". When your browser tries to connect to the "context2" it will get a new session and attach it to the browser. "context2" now has at least 2 sessions, one attached to the webapp called "context1" and one attached to the browser. Or are you saying that *every* request from the browser to the servlet results in a new session?
