Session invalid error message

[Ray Buechler]

I've run into a very odd error.

I have an application that occasionally throws the following error
message when a user attempts to login:

"Error","jrpp-5","05/10/05","13:35:49","BlueFire","Session is invalid
The specific sequence of files included or processed is:
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\bf\index.cfm "
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Session is invalid

The error references the cfapplication tag in the Application.cfm template.

Login is via the cflogin tag which is called in the Application.cfm

The site is a Fusebox 4 site but I do not believe it is a fusebox issue
since the fusebox core files haven't been called yet when the error occurs.

The only way to fix the problem is to delete the users cookies and temp
internet files. So far the error has only occured when using IE 6.x.

Anyone have any idea what is going?

Thanks,

Ray

Thanks....I'll give it a try. I'm using CFMX7. Does anyone know if this
is this still an issue with CFMX7 too?

Thanks,

Definitely still an issue in CFMX 7. We've just upgraded some dev machines from 6.1 to 7 and are seeing this error. We're testing the technote workaround at the moment.

This is a problem for us on our live server.
Tried tn 19109 to set J2EE to 66 minutes and CF to 45 minutes, but this did't
fix it.
Removed 66 minute timeout and set CF to 28 minutes and still get the errors.

By adding <cfset session.previousRequestEnded = now()> to the end of
onRequestEnd() and dumping the session scope and current time when the error
occurs i can show that the requests with the error are within 28 minutes of the
previous request.
This suggests that the CF sessions are behaving themselves, but some J2EE
sessions are becoming invalid before the default 30 minutes.

Is this the same issue Crystal Tech were having a while back

I found another thread where Sarge was "working with an ISP to help resolve
the issue on their servers".

Presumably that wasn't a case of simply applying tb 19109.

Any ideas?

What is your session timeout set to?
If its more than 30 minutes, have you tried applying the changes detailed in
