eliminating jsessionid, so Google/Alexa don 't get confused

2006-11-29 - By Bryce Nesbitt

I've searched and searched for a way to get rid of the sessionid in my
URL's from tomcat/struts. What happens is that Google and other search
engines think that each new session is a unique version of the page,
frustrating their own caching.

I added <%@ page session="false" %> to the top of each page, but I still
see some session ID's in the logs. How can I get tomcat to stop using
session ids everywhere?

Check http://gabrito.com/post/javas-seo-blunder-jsessionid for a writeup
on this issue.
Here are some example crawls from a search engine that shows the engine
thinks that each new page is a unique URL:
