You can use as wellrequest.getSession().setMaxInactiveInterval(600);the method setMaxInactiveInterval from the class HttpSession.But I have problem to forward after the session expiration.After the expiration of the session, I can not forward to the loginpage.I have set the struts-config.xml for :  <global-forwards>    <forward name="welcome" path="/index.jsp"/>  </global-forwards>but in my Action class :AccountBean account = (AccountBean)httpSession.getAttribute("accessToken");if (account == null) {	//Session expired, go to login page.	target = "welcome";	return mapping.findForward(target);}gives nothing. The view, a .jsp page stays the same without anyreaction.Anyone could help ?Thanks
