I'm seeing some odd behaviour with a cookie I'm setting not being removed. I'm unsure which phase of my code is broken or how deep my misunderstandings are here... so I'm looking for some clues.
I'm setting a "keep me logged in" cookie for users of my application. That works fine using... val c = HTTPCookie(COOKIE_NAME, encode(user)).setMaxAge(three_months_as_seconds) S.addCookie(c) The encode(user) is, when all is said and done, returning the user PK as the cookie value. I'm not using ProtoUser, I'm using the scheme outlined in http://groups.google.com/group/liftweb/msg/85a8e790d5efec26 That is, I have... object LoginContext { object userId extends SessionVar[Box[Long]](KeepMeLoggedIn.findUserId) // etc... } ...and the findUserId function tries to decode the cookie and find a matching user: def findUserId:Box[Long] = for { cookie <- S.findCookie(COOKIE_NAME); cookie_value <- cookie.value; (id, salt) <- decode(cookie_value); u <- User.find(By(User.id, id),By(User.salt,salt)) } yield { println(u) id } And that's all working for me. The problem comes when the user clicks the logout link, and I want to remove this cookie. The logout link is: SHtml.link("/logout", LoginContext.logout, <span>Logout</span> ) ... and LoginContext.logout is KeepMeLoggedIn.removeCookie() // the above is just: S.deleteCookie(COOKIE_NAME) userId.remove() currentUser.remove() S.request.foreach(_.request.session.terminate) And for completeness, my /logout page is a redirect to the home page: Menu(Loc("logout", List("logout") -> false, "Logout", Hidden, If( ()=>false, ()=>RedirectResponse("/index")) )) What I'm seeing is: - user clicks logout - logout function called, and Jetty tells me /logout took N milliseconds to render - then I'm seeing activity in the findUserId function, a result is found, and the user is logged back in again. - then Jetty tells me /index took N milliseconds to render. When I dig into HTTP headers, I'm not seeing the cookie value being set in the response header (which I believe is required to remove it). I'm guessing my confusion is perhaps over how the SHtml.link magic works? Any suggestions of where I might poke around next? I'm using 1.1-SNAPSHOT (updated a few hours ago).
