Hi Nesto! you are talking about two different user sessions. The first client is the UI (IE), the server is the Webapp Server running cocoon which becomes the client for the server remoteHost on port 8080. AFAIK there is no (standard) way to merge two (or more) different http sessions, but if you are able to modify the jsps, then you can fill in the needed sessioninformation by converting it to XML and add it to the rest of your xml. By using the WriteDomSessionTransformer you can add this XMLpart to your http session on your cocoon machine, and reuse it with the ReadDomSessionTransformer. Maybe this workaround helps! cheers manfred [EMAIL PROTECTED] am 11.02.2003 16:37:34 Bitte antworten an [EMAIL PROTECTED]@inet An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Kopie: Thema: Session managing problem Hi! I have a problem with the session managing. I'm trying to write a user interface of an existing system using cocoon as publishing framework. The system is composed of a set of JSPs that generates xml data from a database. So the pipelines in the sitemap I wrote are all of this type: <map:match pattern="*.jsp"> <map:act type="request"> <map:parameter name="parameters" value="true"/> <map:generate type="file" src="http://remoteHost:8080/remoteApp/ {../1}.jsp{requestQuery}" mime-type="text/xml"/> <map:transform src="stylesheets/{../1}.xsl"/> <map:serialize type="xhtml"/> </map:act> </map:match> The REMOTE application manage itself the user sessions, but i don't how i have to modify my sitemap in order to let client and the remote application exchange session informations. In this moment the presence of Cocoon between client and Remote App causes the loss of session information (accessing through IE directly, I can see the correct xml data) I read the documentation on Cocoon site, and on Wiki, and I found something that looks interesting: the matchers of type cookie and sessionstate. But the problem is that I really haven't understand how I can use them. Thanks for your answers!
