Hello,

I have an HTTP servlet that creates a session and stores data in it. I know
this works because I have put it in debug and can see the values. I am
executing anther HTTP servlet in the same package and I always get a null
returned. Why cant I access this session again? 

Thanks for any Help!

This is the code that loads the data 
/**
 * This class holds the session key to the session object 
 */
public class Constants {
        public  final static String SESSION_KEY = "session_key";
public Constants() {
        super();
}
}

// Create a session object if one does not already exist        
                HttpSession session = req.getSession(true);
// Create a session info object to store variables
                sessInfo = new SessionInfo();
// Load object with variables 
                sessInfo.setRCDNBR(RCDNBR);
                sessInfo.setWSLO(WSLO);
                sessInfo.setSEMTXT(SEMTXT);
                sessInfo.setSTTNAM(STTNAM);
                sessInfo.setSTADR(STADR);
                sessInfo.setSTCITY(STCITY);
                sessInfo.setSTSTAT(STSTAT);
                sessInfo.setSTZIP(STZIP);
                sessInfo.setSSN(req.getParameter("SSN"));
                sessInfo.setPIN(req.getParameter("PIN"));
                sessInfo.setEMAILADDR(req.getParameter("EMAILADDR"));
                                
// Attach session info to session object
                session.putValue(Constants.SESSION_KEY,sessInfo);

THIS is the code in the second servlet that always returns null for session

SessionInfo sessInfo =null;
                // Get Session Object 
                        HttpSession session = req.getSession(false);
                        if (session == null) {
                                // Redirect to Log in page if not already
logged in
                                res.sendRedirect("/olr/reglogout.html");
                                System.out.println(" session is null");
                        } // End Get Session Object

                        // Retrieve Session Information Object 
                        sessInfo = (SessionInfo)
session.getValue(Constants.SESSION_KEY);
                        if (sessInfo == null) {
                                // Redirect to Log in page if not already
logged in
                                res.sendRedirect("/olr/reglogout.html");
                                System.out.println(" sessInfo is null");
                        } // End SessionInfo Object
