I get this exception accessing a servlet in the Epoc32 emulator browser:

HANDLER THREAD PROBLEM: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cookie name
Discard is a reserved token
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cookie name Discard is a reserved token
        at javax.servlet.http.Cookie.<init>(Cookie.java:145)
        at
com.sun.web.server.ServerRequest.processCookies(ServerRequest.java:154)
        at
com.sun.web.server.ServerRequest.readNextRequest(ServerRequest.java:69)
        at
com.sun.web.server.ConnectionHandler.run(ConnectionHandler.java:68)


I read the source code of Cookie.java and realized that this exception is
thrown when a cookie with name "Discard" is to be instantiated, (I mean
Cookie myCookie = new Cookie("Discard",...)   )

I use JSDK Webserver Version 2.1.
In Tools/General Preferences/Other/Use cookies is set "Always"

My servlet creates a new session, so a new cookie should be created:

  HttpSession oHttpSession = request.getSession(false);
  if (oHttpSession!=null)
   oHttpSession.invalidate();
  oHttpSession = request.getSession(true);


Why this exception is being thrown? I have heard that the Web server that
comes with Epoc32 emulator doesn't support cookies, but in "Tools/General
Preferences/Other/Use cookies" you can set to allow or not cookies

Any help?
