It sounds like your webserver, or whatever is generating & processing the session cookie, is in error. From my reads of RFC2109 & RFC2068, quotes are reserved characters, they are not allowed in the cookie value.

They say the cookie value can be either

                    token | quoted-string

where

         token          = 1*<any CHAR except CTLs or tspecials>

         tspecials      = "(" | ")" | "<" | ">" | "@"
                        | "," | ";" | ":" | "\" | <">
                        | "/" | "[" | "]" | "?" | "="
                        | "{" | "}" | SP | HT

and

         quoted-string  = ( <"> *(qdtext) <"> )

         qdtext         = <any TEXT except <">>


So in your example, the quoted-string form is used, therefore the quotes are not part of the cookie value.

Perhaps one of the developers can comment?

Hello to all,

From our webserver I get a session cookie in the form POSESSIONID="dfgsdfgsdg=" But the HTTPClient sends back the cookie in the form POSESSIONID=dfgsdfgsdg=. Therefore no authentication is done. Is there a way to configure the HttpClient to send back
the session cookie as it is and do no modifications?

Thank you,
Reinhard
