I have a small application where the first thing that appears is a login form. Where if the user correctly enters the data access to the menu page where you can save some records in the database. The problem is that I am not saving the session correctly or that I am accessing it in an erroneous way since when I try to access it gives me a fault (NullPointerException).
I save the session through the login session servlet. That is, with the data that the user puts in, I pick them up with the request and I call a method that checks if the user data and password are in the database. If it exists, save the session and access menu.jsp. I keep it this way:
session = request.getSession(true);
session.setAttribute("user", user);
session.setAttribute("pass", pass);
session.setAttribute("obj", usuObj);
At that moment the user is in the menu and in toeria, the session is created. Then on the page insert a record in the bd. I want to access the object that I added to the session.
usuObj = (usuarioObj) getServletContext().getAttribute("obj");
id_usu = usuObj.getIdUsu();
But it gives me failure in that line:

Then I do not know if the failure is in which I do not keep the session well, or if the session is created but as soon as I exit the servlet and redirect to the menu the session disappears or if I'm not accessing as it should.
Finally, in the servlet where I have the problem I have this line of code:
session = request.getSession(true);
