'Application logout Cannot call sendRedirect() after the response has been committed

After login to the application and while trying to perform any activity the page keeps loading for some time and logged out of the application.

I checked the logs and found the below error message for the logout reason.

Do I need to use a different approach instead of the HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect(url)?

Please help me why the user session become null or inactive and redirects to the logout page.
