Tomcat JSESSINID cokie has "null" domain.
Thanks in advance - this is probably a stupid question:
Seems like, our cookies have "null" for a domain - how can a cookie have a
null domain?
We wrote this jsp and put it under webapps/examples/login.jsp
<%@page import="java.util.*,javax.servlet.http.*"%>
<%
System.out.println("*****************************in
?webapps/examples/login1.jsp line 3");
javax.servlet.http.Cookie[] cks = request.getCookies();
if (cks != null){
System.out.println("number of cookies = " + cks.length);
for (int i=0; i<cks.length; i++){
System.out.println("cks[" + i + "] = " + cks[i]);
System.out.println("cks[" + i + "].getName() = " +
cks[i].getName() );
System.out.println("cks[" + i + "].getDomain() = " +
cks[i].getDomain() );
System.out.println("cks[" + i + "].getPath() = " +
cks[i].getPath() );
System.out.println("cks[" + i + "].getValue() = " +
cks[i].getValue() );
}
}
%>
<html>
<body>
<h1>in webapps/examples/login1.jsp</h1>
</html>
On the first access, http://localhost:8080/examples/login1.jsp the cookie
count is 0.
On reload, there is one cookie: JSESSIONID - but the domain is null?
We tried the same test on tomcat 4.1.24 and tomcat 3.2.4
It seems like the browser returns a cookie with null in the domain?
Thanks
James

I wrote a similar thing as a servlet for my cookies a while ago.
Everything but the name and the value is null or not set, regardless of
the values I set them to. This may be some kind of security thing with
cookies, I don't know. Netscape 6 (and probably all Gecko derivatives)
has a way to view the contents of the cookie that correctly shows the
domain, max age, path etc.

Yes thank you - I see it in the servlet 2.3 spec:
SRV.4.6 Cookies
The HttpServletRequest interface provides the getCookies method to obtain an
array of cookies that are present in the request. These cookies are data
sent from the client to the server on every request that the client makes.
Typically, the only information that the client sends back as part of a
cookie is the cookie name and the cookie value. Other cookie attributes that
can be set when the cookie is sent to the browser, such as comments, are not
typically returned.

Web browsers only send the cookie name and value to the server. That is all
and nothing else.
Web browsers do not send:
- domain
- expiration
- path
- or anythng else
