Session Time out and session_timeout.jsp

We have Sun Java Identity Server 2005 Q1 installed as part of our Sun Java System Portal Server 2005 Q1 install.
When the authentication session times out, it redirects the user back to the login page. I remember that in 6.2 it used to show up the session_timeout.jsp page? Is there any way to make it work that way in Q1 2005 ?

To be more specific, find your top level desktop display profile (marked as Default Channel Name) container name. Then go to Portal desktop type (default, or sampleportal, or...) with above container directory. (ex: /etc/opt/SUNSWps/desktop/default/JSPTabContainer) Modify header.jsp and/or menubar.jsp (something ...?action=logout with goto=http:///.....) HTH, Jerry

Session time-out and password security

Hi,
I have a webservice utility, deployed on several platforms (as an EAR on weblogic and webspere, as a WAR on tomcat), they all exhibit the same feature: on first connection, a username/password box pops up, but after the session times out (after 20 minutes or so of inactivity) and the it receives a new page request, instead of re-asking for the username/password, the app just jumps back to its own start page, and then continues without asking.
How can I make it to pop-up the username/password box again?
The security is implemented through the web.xml file:
<security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
      <web-resource-name>Success</web-resource-name>
      <url-pattern>/Logparser</url-pattern>
      <http-method>GET</http-method>
      <http-method>POST</http-method>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <auth-constraint>
      <role-name>webuser</role-name>
    </auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<login-config>
    <auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
    <realm-name>default</realm-name>
</login-config>
<security-role>
    <role-name>webuser</role-name>
</security-role>I found that this in itself was not good enough security as you would be able to go directly to one of the sub-pages (if you know the url), and to prevent that I pass (and check) the session-id with each page request.
(all java servlets).
Obviously something is missing, but I don't know what
thanks
Michael

Hi Michael,
Your web application is currently configured to use BASIC authentication.
Instead if you use FORM-based authentication, then any new request (after your web application session times out) will be redirected to the login page. The Servlet specification has more information about FORM-based login.
If you have a Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 or a Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 installation you can find a sample that uses form-login in the following directory
6.1: <install-directory>/plugins/java/samples/webapps/security/form-auth
7.0: <install-directory>/samples/java/webapps/security/form-auth

Session time out and automatic log off

hi,
I have been using JSC for a while but I am not JSC guru.
I want to implement automatic logoff when the session timesout. I know that I can set session time out in tomat web.xml file. but I cant understand how to check if the session time is out and logOff the user.
When user logs in, username is stored in the database, so when the user logoff the username has to be deleted from the database and he should be redirected to the login page. I want all this to be done automatically when session times out(i.e if the user is inactive for specified amount of time).
Any help is greatly appreciated. Please reply ASAP, i need to get this working by tommorow.

Session Time Out and Redirect to login page - urgent

My problem is I want to display alert message and redirect to the home page when session expires.
Iam using TimeOutListener in my application as follows.
public PhaseId getPhaseId() {
return PhaseId.ANY_PHASE;
public void beforePhase(PhaseEvent phaseEvent) {
     FacesContext facesContext = phaseEvent.getFacesContext();
HttpSession sessionx = (HttpSession)facesContext.getExternalContext().getSession(false);
if(sessionx == null) {
     FacesUtils.sessionCheck = true;
String ampee = (String)((HttpServletRequest)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest()).getAttribute("ampee");
if(ampee != null && ampee.equals("ampee")) FacesUtils.sessionCheck = false;
if(phaseEvent.getPhaseId() == PhaseId.RENDER_RESPONSE) {
     if(FacesUtils.sessionCheck){
     facesContext.getApplication().getNavigationHandler().handleNavigation(facesContext, "", "sessionExpired" );
     FacesUtils.sessionCheck = false;
ExternalContext externalContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext();
          HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) externalContext.getRequest();
          HttpSession session = request.getSession();
          if (session.isNew()) {
               try {
               String errorPageURL = externalContext.getRequestContextPath() +
               "/index.jsf?errorpage=true";
               externalContext.redirect(errorPageURL);
               }catch(Exception e){
                    e.printStackTrace();
here i have appended param errorPage=true...
in jsp page i have used following code to get the param<% if(request.getParameter(errorPage)!=null && request.getParameter(errorPage).equals("true")){%>
<script>alert("session expired");</script>
<%
%>
Can any one help me how to Implement this?
Do u know another way pls let me know...

Consider using the Javascript setTimeout() function in conjunction with HttpSession#getMaxInactiveInterval(). The HttpSession#getMaxInactiveInterval() returns the remaining seconds of the session lifetime.
Basic example:<script>
    setTimeout("alert('The session will timeout after one minute.')", <%= (session.getMaxInactiveInterval() * 1000) - 60000 %>);
</script>I've given the client one minute (60000ms) extra time space to respond accordingly.
Use this in combination with the following head:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="<%= session.getMaxInactiveInterval() %>;url=login.jsf">which will redirect to login.jsf if the session is timed out. You can also redirect to another page of your taste, e.g. error.jsf or so.

Session Time out and iTunes login issues

I am trying to put a digital copy of an Alvin and the Chipmunks DVD into iTunes for holiday tomorrow for my daughters. The redeem code screen comes up fine in iTunes but then next screen after that always says "Session Timeout" your session has timed out.
All computers (3 macs) are also having issues logging into itunes as it keeps asking for my password, logs me in for about 10 seconds to view my account but then seems to log out immediately. I think this might be the issue.
I have tried signing out of app store and itunes on all computers in case that was an issue but still remains.
HELP! I really want to get this sorted today but am now frustrated at 2 hours of trying everything I can think of.
Thanks

Form based login, iframes and session time out

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a site using form based login.
The site contains a page protected page, default.jsp that have a logout button/link (clicking it invalidates the session), and a navigation bar with links linking opening them in iframes inside the default.jsp page:
I have also a login.jsp page and and a error.jsp page
Everything works fine I can login, I can logout. My problem occurs when the session times out and the user tries to access protected contents in the internal frames. He then is promted for a new login. The problem is that the login,jsp page now turns up inside the jframe designatet for my contents.
I woud have liked the login page to turn up at the top level i.e. filling the entire browser window (i.e on the same level as the default.jsp page). Is this somehow possible?
Regards
Uno Engborg

Easy answer: use JS to jump out iframe.
Best answer: don't use iframes, but use server side includes like jsp:include. Iframes have too much disadvangages, topping the extremely bad SEO and UX.

SSO Partner Application and Session Time out

Hi ,
We have an application on forums.oracle.com which is implementing the Authentication scheme as SSO, that is working well, now we want to implement Session Time out if the user is idle for some time and ask him to login again after the session fails, I have tried to implement this feature as given by Scott in the thread session timeout , well the problem is since we dont have a login page here how do we set the cookies owa_cookie.send(
name => 'HTMLDB_IDLE_SESSION',
value => to_char(sysdate+(20/1440),'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),
expires => null,
path => '/',
domain => null
and where is the current point to implement it.
Any help on this is greatly welcome.
Thanks in Advance.

Naveen,
I don't remember how the solution works. But if you don't have a login page you can usually put code in the post-authentication process of your authentication scheme to do whatever the login page process would have done.

Session Time out happens on Win2k Advanced Servers

Hi All,
          I have configured a Admin server and 2 cluster servers. All are on Win 2000
          Advanced Servers. After deploying EJBs to the cluster, when I try to log in
          to our application ( Presentation logic is done by servelets & JSPs ) it
          allows to log in but when I try to click a link to go to another page
          session time out happens. This happens whenever I click a link or browser's
          Refresh button. I have to repeatedly log in.
          Have anyone faced this problem ? Is there a session time out problem with
          WLS6.0 sp2 ?
          Please respond.
          Thanks

Session time out in Websphere Application Server

Hi ,
I am using Websphere Application server 5.1 . I need to set the session time out for my web application. Actually, i edited the web.xml and set the value
<session-config>
<session-timeout>10</session-timeout>
</session-config>But when I am refreshing my jsp page, after 10-15 mts, i am able to get a valid page without any problem. Actually since the session time out is 10 mts , I should not get a valid page after 10 mts . I tried one more option for setting the session time out . I opened the admin console of my App server and set the session time out there too. But session not seems to be timing out after 10-15 mts. I am still able to get a valid jsp page. I have many session attributes in that page. So after 10 mts, i should not get a valid page.. I dont know, what's wrong in my configuration. If some body knows the answer please help me.
thanks in advance.
Aneesh K

So what you're trying to achieve is that the ui closes or becomes invalid if no action has been performed for a certain time? That should be easy enough, install a javax.swing.Timer somewhere in your application and set it to the time you desire. Whenever the user performs an action, invoke reset() on the timer (it's a fairly cheap operation). If the timer fires, you know the timeout occured.
You have to decide for yourself what you consider a 'user action' in this context. If you want the session to stay alive as long as the user is still doing something, just install an AWTEventListener, which can react to pretty much anything, mouse movement, keyboard input etc.
