Hi Konstantin,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, the getHeaders("cookie") returns what seems to be a valid set of cookies,
thus we're not losing them in any of the proxies we might have set up.
(Currently, we're only in development mode for tomcat 6 and we're not going
through any proxies, just directly to the server.)
We get this problem in all sorts of browsers (FF, Safari, IE).
The thing that really bugs me is the inconsistency. It's almost as if there
were a race condition going on, but the request is basically single threaded,
isn't it? My only fear is some parser used in the tomcat code is being used in
a non-thread safe manner, but then *everybody* would be having this problem,
neh?
I'm finding out about the connectors, but we may not be using any as :
Jan 28, 2010 6:52:56 PM org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener init
INFO: The APR based Apache Tomcat Native library which allows optimal
performance in production environments was not found on the java.library.path:
/dist/sfsite/obj
Hopefully, this is just in our development environments!
Thanks,
-George
