Thanks for your quick response! Unfortunately the cookies set are not identical. Please look at the last bit of the two strings: First response: _vm_session_prod=BAh7xxxx--8afcxxx Second response: _vm_session_prod=BAh7xxxx--c173xxx (!!!)
The problem later on is that one of my flash files tries to authorize itself (it sends the session cookie to the server) using the cookie which was current when the flash file was loaded. BUT meanwhile (in between flash file was loaded and first flash file request to server) those images sent by send_file are changing the session cookie. As a result of this, the requests out of the flash file are refused by the server (Error 401).
