Description

Originally by lstrzelecki


In portal (Liferay) environment when http session closes, then displays Communication Problem notification. In standard environment (only servlet container) is shown Session Timeout notification.

Could it behave in same way on this environments?

Vaadin 6.8.3
Liferay 6.0.5

Research direction

Start by locating the Java code that handles session expiration and chooses between the Communication Problem and Session Timeout notifications. Compare behavior in the Liferay portal and standard servlet-container environments; done when an expired HTTP session produces the same Session Timeout notification in both.
