How to invalidate selected session programmatically?

Question

I'm trying to invalidate selected session (with given sessionId) from my web application runing on Jboss 4.2. Everything works perfect from JMX console but I don't know how to do the same in java code. Here is what i have already created:

MBeanServer server=MBeanServerLocator.locateJBoss();
ObjectName objectName = new ObjectName("jboss.web:host=localhost,path=/,type=Manager");

ManagerBase manager = (ManagerBase)MBeanServerInvocationHandler.newProxyInstance(server, objectName, Manager.class, false);
manager.expireSession("sessionID");

But this code gives this exception:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.proxy.$Proxy574 cannot be cast to org.apache.catalina.session.ManagerBase

Can You help me?

Answer 1

You have to collect the session in a map check following link :

• How can i load Java HttpSession from JSESSIONID?
• Find number of active sessions created from a given client IP
• How to easily implement "who is online" in Grails or Java Application?

If you are still looking for the answer. That snippet works for me:

        MBeanServer server = java.lang.management.ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer();

        ObjectName objectName=new ObjectName("jboss.web:type=Manager,path=/test,host=default-host");

        // declare signature of the parameter
        String[] sig = { "java.lang.String"};
        // your session id e.g. A7rOCAlFa+9uCeUfYNjJpd3r.undefined
        Object[] opArgs1 = { sessionID };
        // call the method
        String value = (String) server.invoke(objectName, "expireSession",
                opArgs1, sig);

I am working on JBoss-7.1.1.Final. My application is called "test", hence the context root "/test". You should create objectName with name of your application.
