Hello, I can't tell for what reasons IE behaves as it does.
Cookies with version 0 are always formatted using CookiePolicy.NETSCAPE. You can search for the cookie in the HttpState, then use setVersion() to change the version number. Then, the cookie will be formatted by the default CookiePolicy, which you can replace. That's for the HttpClient version in CVS HEAD. When thinking about it, this sounds a lot like a hack. I wonder why the application sends a Netscape style cookie if it can't handle it when it comes back. Or maybe the application does *not* send a Netscape style cookie, but fails to provide appropriate version info. Kayzuya, which version of HttpClient are you using? And could you post a wire log, so we can see what cookie headers are actually received from and sent back to the server? http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/logging.html cheers, Roland "Imabayashi, Kazuya" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 19.03.2004 09:26 Please respond to "Commons HttpClient Project" To: "'Commons HttpClient Project'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Subject: RE: cookie version info Thanks a lot for your reply. Then why IE does not pass it to server? Is there any way to strip it off using httpclient?

Cookies that adhere to the new spec include version info when sent back to the server. RFC 2965 also includes information about compatibility with older servers. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2965.txt My guess is that the server supports the new cookies, but the application running on the server does not. cheers, Roland "Imabayashi, Kazuya" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 19.03.2004 08:56 Please respond to "Commons HttpClient Project" To: Commons HttpClient Project <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Subject: cookie version info Hi there, I have a small question regarding cookie handling. When I execute GetMethod to some host, cookies are returned. However, each cookie has its version info, like "$version=0". An application of the target host cannot process this properly. When I took some http traces via IE, no version info specified. Does anybody have any idea on this?
