Gilles -

What container are you running this in?  Depending on the container,
there may be certain setup requirements where you have to tell the
container that you want to use sessions, what the session timeout is,
etc.  How are you identifying sessions?  In other words, how does the
container match an interaction to a stored session?  Are you using
cookies or URL rewriting or some other means?

If your code is working, I suspect the session support is not properly
set up for the container.  However, without knowing what servlet engine
you're using, it's difficult to go further.
