Too bad, as that's the only portable alternative. >Till now we solved the problem by specifying the domain globally >in the resin.conf . Yes we used Resin as Servlet-Engine and Resin >supports a config-tag <cookie-domain> which solved our problem >perfectly. As far as i know Tomcat doesn't support something >like that. When you use container-specific, non-Servlet-Specification features, you can expect trouble when trying to move across containers ;) >As I don't have access to the session-cookie, >i thought in creating a cookie with the current session-id and the >proper domain set for every virtual host, but that seems to me >a little bit awkward. It might be awkward, but if you can't use url-rewriting this might also be the next best option. >Is it possible to specify a general cookie-domain globally for a virtual >host? Not currently. >Is there a way to manipulate the session-cookie (set the domain)? Not currently. >What is supposed as best practise to get access to one session from >different subdomains? Use url-rewriting. To enable it, set cookies="false" on your Context declarations. >Any help/comment is greatly appreciated. Portability is tough to achieve, but great once achieved. Shortcuts and container-specific goodies end up costing more in the long term, as this example shows.
