Thanks for the patch. I wonder if there is a use case where this option (the
cookie policy) should be exposed as a url param.

> Key: AMQ-6571
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-6571
> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Transport
> Affects Versions: 5.14.2, 5.14.3

> h2. Background
> We are using ActiveMQ's [HTTP
> transport|http://activemq.apache.org/http-and-https-transports-reference.html]
> to connect to brokers hosted in AWS, behind a load balancer.
> This transport requires a sticky session (i.e. session affinity) because of
> the local map of clients in
> [{{HttpTunnelServlet.clients}}|https://github.com/apache/activemq/blob/master/activemq-http/src/main/java/org/apache/activemq/transport/http/HttpTunnelServlet.java#L60]
> AWS's classic load balancer sends sticky session cookies with the {{max-age}}
> attribute:
> {noformat}
> AWSELB=2DC7[...]F155;PATH=/;MAX-AGE=36000
> {noformat}
> Whereas AWS's new application load balancer, which supports a web application
> firewall (WAF), uses the {{Expires}} attribute:
> {noformat}
> AWSALB=QclQ[...]V2kP; Expires=Tue, 27 Dec 2016 09:31:43 GMT; Path=/
> {noformat}
> As of [RFC 6265|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265] both {{max-age}} and
> {{Expires}} are valid attributes.
> h2. Issue
> Apache HTTP Client 4.5.2 defaults to a [cookie policy of
> {{best-match}}|https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/http/client/params/CookiePolicy.html].
> When the {{AWSALB}} cookie is received, the cookie is not handled and the
> ActiveMQ log contains the following:
> {noformat}
> 2017-01-19 12:23:58,185 | WARN | Invalid cookie header: "Set-Cookie:
> AWSALB=QclQ[...]V2kP; Expires=Tue, 27 Dec 2016 09:31:43 GMT; Path=/". Invalid
> 'expires' attribute: Tue, 27 Dec 2016 09:31:43 GMT |
> org.apache.http.client.protocol.ResponseProcessCookies | main
> {noformat}
> h2. Solution
> The solution is to change the cookie policy in
> {{HttpClientTransport.createHttpClient()}}:
> {code:java}
> HttpClientParams.setCookiePolicy(params, CookiePolicy.BROWSER_COMPATIBILITY);
> {code}
> Patch attached.
