Problem with session attributes in JSP EL using Spring MVC

Question

I\'m trying to show a session attribute \"userSession\" in a jsp page using JSP EL, but it returns null (case 1). Request attributes are shown properly in EL expressions tho

Answer 1

Fixed. Problem was with a <%@ page session="false" %> directive found in an include.jsp used by my page, which I removed from that global place.

It prevents a jsp page from access to session scope variables. So only <%=request.getSession().getAttribute("foo")%> works in that case...
