I've just installed Webware for the first time and would like to report
what seems to be a bug in WebUtils/Cookie.py, when using WebKit.
It appears the particular contents of my cookie causes an exception.
Operating system: Redhat 6.2
Python: 2.1
Webware 0.5.1rc3
Apache 1.3.20
AsyncThreadedAppServer
CGI Adapter (WebKit.cgi)
This all works when the client is the Redhat machine, but when
the client is WinNT 4.0 SP5 (both run Netscape 4.72), WebUtils/Cookie.py
hits an exception when parsing the Cookie:
BEGIN REQUEST
Wed Oct 10 13:31:03 2001
receiving request from <socket object, fd=9, family=2, type=1,
protocol=0>
received 1422 bytes
request has keys: format, time, environ, input
request uri = /tools/WebKit/WebKit.cgi
Exception in thread Thread-5:

if K[0] == "$":
IndexError: string index out of range
--------------------------------------------------------
I put some diagnostics in WebUtils/Cookie.py and it looks like it's
the two equal signs in the cookie that cause the problem. I always have
this
in my cookie under WinNT, presumably a site-specific thing.
----------------------------------------
In __ParseString
str: SITESERVER=ID=ed122bdcebc3a2e127a20eee3a71e551
