Spring Security - Cannot access my welcome webpage while I'm already logged

I have a website which uses Spring Security. I have realized that when I am logged in the application and I tried to access the website again without closing this session I get a 404 error. I mean if my application has a context name "myApp" I can acess to localhost:8080/myApp when I am not logged in, but when I am logged in and I entered that URL I get the error. It doesn't happen for example if I enter localhost:8080/myApp/control/login which displays my login form correctly.

Here is my Spring -security configuration:

<sec:logout logout-success-url="/control/logout"/>  

<sec:session-management>
 <sec:concurrency-control expired-url="/control/login/error" />
</sec:session-management>

In my web.xml I have index.jsp as the welcome file

<welcome-file-list>
 <welcome-file>/index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>

I added the log when I try to access my welcome page and it shows a 404 error:

Edit: It only happens when I am already logged. May it be a problem with the session?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: I have Spring 3.0.0 RC3 and Spring Security 3.0.0 RC1 It still happens, any idea?

mmmm, does this URL work http://localhost:8080/myApp/control/index or it shows a 404 too? It's the one in default-target-url property.

And without the / ?

<welcome-file-list>
 <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>

<sec:intercept-url pattern="/**" access="ROLE_ANONIM,ROLE_GUEST,ROLE_BASIC,ROLE_ADMIN,ROLE_PREMIUM" />

is being qualified for the url there and can be access only by those users.

Also I noticed you using ROLE_ANONIM, but you haven't configured it to set as default role. I mean something like this

<sec:anonymous username="guest" granted-authority="ROLE_ANONIM"/>


<sec:intercept-url pattern="/control/login**" filters="none" />

Adding the above line should solve your problem

I solved it by the use of a JSP used just to redirect to the index.jsp REST url and by setting in the welcome-file the absolute path to the location where the JSP starting with a slash.
