http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12310 Problems with Cookie processing Summary: Problems with Cookie processing Product: Tomcat 4 Version: 4.0.4 Final Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: Other Component: Servlet & JSP API AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] One of my compatriots is having a problem with a 3rd party peice of software that attempting to access a Tomcat 4.0.4 server. The 3rd party software .. acting as a client .. is sending a requst with a cookie: header with the following value .. JSESSIONID=F40180928E56604E197E25DEA7C4EF6F; domain=null; path=/ecs Tomcat 4.0.4 complains with an IllegalArgumentException exception .. The exception occurs in the Coyote adaptor.. org.apache.coyote.tomcat4CoyoteAdapter in method parseCookies .. when 'copying' the cookies for the current request .. calling 'new Cookie()' .. >From rfc 2109 the cookie header does appear to be 'wrong' since domain and path .. in this case .. should be $Domain and $Path .. However .. there is code in the jakarta-servletapi .. javax.servlet.http.Cookie .. that I do have a question about .. The code for the Cookie constructor disallows cookies with the names of the set- cookie attribute values .. this is what is causing the above exception .. Sooo .. the question is: Where in rfc 2109 does it say that cookie names cannot be the names of the set-cookie attribute values ?? While I have reported back to the 3rd party that thier software has 'problems' .. I dont understand why Tomcat is performing the tests specified in the code .. If anyone could comment on this .. it would be greatly appreciated .. Len -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
