179282 - Under apparently random circumstances, cookies are not being sent

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021104 Chimera/0.6

On two sites (neither currently public, sorry), Chimera randomly seems to forget
sending the cookie.  I've seen it with two separate users, and it happens quite
frequently in one case.  One site has the cookie domain set to
"stage2.example.com" and the other has it set to ".example.com".  In the latter
case we've only seen it happen once or twice.  In the former it happens all the
time.  I changed the first case to ".example.com" as well, and the problem seems
to have gone away.

Actually, I might be able to set up a test site if you need it.

Kee, please do.

Any progress on the test site?

Comment 4

[Kee Hinckley]

My apologies, I dropped this one on the floor.  At this point I'm pretty sure it
was a site programming error on my part.  I haven't been able to duplicate the
problem since I made the fix.
