[Coursework-devl] Trying to view "My Profile" after session is expired

[Sam O. <sa...@lo...>]

I posted this error to the bug tracker.  I would be glad to try and post 
a patch, but I don't understand the system well enough yet.

Here is the error when I try to go to the MyProfile servlet with an 
expired session:

java.lang.NullPointerException
	at edu.stanford.coursework.common.SessionController.update(SessionController.java:99)
	at MyProfile.doPost(MyProfile.java:100)
	at MyProfile.doGet(MyProfile.java:49)
	at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:740)
	at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853)


I thought BaseServlet handled all issues with expired sessions, but I 
guess not..... Do I just need to add some session error checking in 
MyProfile?  Or in SessionController?

Thanks,
Sam
