Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application Server Version    *
    *                  8.0, and 8.5.5 users.                       *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A java.lang.IllegalStateException may   *
    *                      occur when a request has started        *
    *                      processing a session that was           *
    *                      recently invalidated by another         *
    *                      thread.                                 *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    There is a small timing window at the beginning of a request
    where a java.lang.IllegalStateException may occur when another
    thread invalidates the session. The servlet cannot recover
    from the java.lang.IllegalStateException.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The session manager was updated to handle the
    java.lang.IllegalStateException and process the request
    normally.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 8.0.0.8, and 8.5.5.2. Please refer to the
