Hi all,

Has anybody encountered a problem with proxy servers stripping cookies and
therefore invalidating the session?

We have deployed an application, and a number of customers complained that
they were unable to login. On closer examination we found that the session
object isNew() method returned true on each page of our application.

I've noticed that JRUN uses ;jsessionID on the URL bar the first time that a
session aware page is accessed. I guessed that this maybe to counter
problems when the user had cookies switched off. However this does not seem
to be the case.

We can obviously code using URL re-writing, however I would have thought
that this was a common problem and the servlet engine vendors would have a
suitable fall back.

Looking forward to any comments or insights.

Best

Gary
