GWT app with Spring Security caching/refresh issue

[tim.clymer]

I've been having an odd caching/refresh issue with my application. I
have my GWT (1.6.4) app secured with Spring Security (2.0.4). For the
most part, this works perfectly. I have a login page which redirects
to my entry point page once authenticated, and any attempt to access
my entry point page without being authenticated redirects to the login
page. However sometimes when the redirect is performed on login I get
a blank entry point page and the browser shows that loading is
complete. When I look at the page source, the entry point HTML is
there along with the reference to the generated nocache js. However,
my app doesn't load and the page title doesn't appear in the browser
tab, just the URL.

I'm wondering if this is caching related, but this is just my best
guess. If I refresh the page, the app always pops right up. It's
happening across all browsers. Any ideas?

What I'm using:
GWT 1.6.4
SmartGWT 1.1
Tomcat 6

Thanks,
Tim

This thread also seems to have run into the issue. Seems to be a
tomcat issue. Odd though that I haven't been able to find more
instances of it.

Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it with a method other than
renaming the entry point from .html to .jsp?
