Re: Sending Cookies from Access-Handler - Update

[Nenad Steric <ne...@teleweb.at>]

I was wrong, there is no cookie being set at all.

So, what happens is that the handler gets called 
i get an entry in the error_log like
"setting cookie Ticket=ID&1; ... expires=Sun, 15-Jul-2001 ..."
and No Cookie being sent to the browser.

Is it possible to send cookies from the Accesshandler ? or am i wasting my time ?
Should i use push_handlers and use another phase of the request ?

which my modperl doesn't like, i built it with "EVERYTHING=1" but it doesn't want to call 
other handlers than the AccessHandler .. another Puzzle it seems.

Something else, I haven't used CGI's cookie handling, but I have used
Apache::Cookie. I know that this can be done from an AuthenHandler and from
a TransHandler.

Ok, 
i think i should really go to sleep now ...

It was using the wrong domain !
forgot to tell apache that it is called "www.my.com"
as i was sending cookies for ".my.com" ...

strangely under win32 this didn't work even with the right domain...

good night,

Nenad

Re: Sending Cookies from Access-Handler - Update 2

Ok,
i tried the push_handlers with PerlFixupHandler,
as before this gets called also , 
i get an entry in my error_log (because i use $r->warn to log)
and again no cookie is being sent ...

For the record : i am using apache 1.3.20 and modperl 1.25

Do i have to do a redirect or something similar so that the browser
sets the cookie ?
Or do i have problems with the basic configuration of apache ?
