The message I posted earlier (in march) contains a patch to address this issue.

Hi, As I (with Rüdigers help :-) ) found out, there is already a bug report to my problem: #41897 describes the problem that the case-sensitivity of the "stickysession"-Parameter does not comply to the Java Servlet Spec (Cookie: "JSESSIONID", url based session management ";jsessionid"). To solve this problem in a backward compatible way, I'd like to suggest the following solution before writing a patch: Add two parameters "stickysessionpath" and "stickysessioncookie". "stickysessionpath" sets the session name for URL based session management and might be something like ";jsessionid". "stickysessioncookie" sets the session name for Cookie based session management. "stickysession" should set the session name for both parameters. Pro: - It does solve the problem - One can explicitly choose to use *only* one of the two algorithms. - Currently, only the sequence "<session name>=" is searched. However, in Java environments, a ";jsessionid=" would be more precise... An alternative would be to have an option to search the session name case-insensitive. Could I get "votes" if my approach / an according patch is acceptable? Best regards, Georg
