At least tell us the version of Tomcat you're using; also, although probably not relevant for this problem, include the JRE/JDK level and the platform you're running on. > A client application that sends requests to this web service > sends the session id with a certain type of request. Are you referring to a session cookie or the JSESSIONID parameter (as defined in the servlet spec), or is this a roll-your-own session identifier? > After many requests (over 1000) occurring in the same session > (in other words, by the same client), the session id no longer > exists (the web service throws an error when the type of request > that has the session id parameter gives an unknown session id). There is a maxKeepAliveRequests attribute for a <Connector> element, with a default setting of 100. It's possible that's coming into play, depending on the client you're using.

Unlikely, but if the webapp is being restarted, it should show up in Tomcat's logs.
