Invalidating HttpSession

            Description

            In my application, whenever I am logging out, I am calling the following logic:

            ExternalContext ectx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext();
            HttpSession session = (HttpSession)ectx.getSession(false);
            session.invalidate();

            However, the problem is that when I log back into this application, I need to have user id to retrieve some initiial information from DB. When I call FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRemoreUser(), it returns null because the FacesContext is null. Is the way I am invalidating the seesion correct? Why I cannot access FacesContext? I have to redeploy the application in order to proceed correctly with FacesContext and getRemoteUser().

              Hi Chris,

              I have a few questions which will help in my investigation:

              • When you logout are you navigating to a different page (logout or login page)?
              • Is your login page an ICEfaces controlled page, or is it a plain JSF/HTML page?
              • Are you using a specific authentication framework/solution (Spring Security, container based, ect)?

              Thanks,
              Arran
