DWR problem after timeout with Spring Security

[Krycek_A]

Hi guys,

I ran into a little issue while using DWR in a Spring web application. We've set a session timeout for X minutes. After the session is expired, the user is automatically redirected to the login page. In case a DWR call is attempted after the session expiry, the user is also redirected to the login page (which is good). But after he tries to login in, Spring will go to the last url before the expiry. In case this was a DWR call, the user receives a download popup to try downloading this DWR script call.
Is there a way to redirect back to the page where the DWR call is made instead of the call it self?

Thanks in advance.
Davy

I found a solution for my problem described above. I replaced the redirect (after session expiry) from /login.htm to /logout.htm. In that way, Spring will clear everything from the session. This includes the URL of the last request after session expiry

Thank You for your answer. But I've tried this "dwr.engine.setTextHtmlHandler" global function with no success. I use DWR 2.0.5.
Maybe somthing other settings or things are incorrect.

It seems to work fine for me. I use: DWR 2.0.5, Spring 2.5.3, Spring WebFlow 1.0.5, Tomcat 5.5.23 and Java 1.5.

Hello,

bad news for me, but I've tried all, no success. Now I implemented a JavaScript function witch count for the httpsession timeot time and after that redirect to the login page. This is all what I can do.
Maybe can You give me some guidelines or tipps what to do ( or what not ).

Guys,

Maybe this will sort some things out. Here is what I have done to solve my problem. In your page, add the following javascript code snippet in the head tag:

<script type="text/javascript">
     /*
      * Redirect to login page when a DWR request is send after a session timeout
      */
     try {
         if (dwr && dwr.engine) {
             dwr.engine.setTextHtmlHandler(function() {
                 document.location = 'here goes the url to your login page';
             });
         }
     catch(err) {} //ignore 
</script>

Make sure you also have the dwr libs on each page included

If you make use of the SiteMesh decorator, you can place this code snippet in the decorator so you won't have to copy it on each page

Thanks, but I have the same code (without dwr exists check)

;-(

But thank You very much. Have You logged that your code is called? ( with Firebug log.console or whatother )

Bye
