    Description

      Issue Summary

      The default Tomcat session cookie name is "JSESSIONID".

      If more than one application using Tomcat (with the default cookie name) is installed on the same server the user is constantly asked to re-login. Even changing tabs and immediately moving back to the Bamboo tab will force the user to login again.
      Examples: Bamboo, Confluence, Jira, Bitbucket or 3rd party application.

      Current Solution

      Constantly logged out of Bamboo
      Note: Customer was at a military installation and the workarounds were not allowed.

      Suggested Solution

      Modify the web.xml file to include a unique JSESSIONID for Bamboo.
      Example:

      Current web.xml
      <session-config>
          <session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
      </session-config>
      
      Suggested web.xml
      <session-config>
          <session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
          <cookie-config>
              <name>Bamboo-JSESSIONID</name>
          </cookie-config>
      </session-config>
      

      Modifying the web.xml in this fashion will give bamboo a unique session id and will eliminate this problem.
