lost session-cookies with jboss, iis, internet explorer

Hallo,

Problem with the combination on W2003 64bit, IIS, jboss-4.2.2.GA and IE. Session cookies get lost. Isapi_redirect.dll should be the correct one. There is no problem with Firefox and Opera. A similar installation, but on Linux 64bit Red Hat, Apache, jboss-4.2.2.GA, has no problem, even not with IE. Client is an Applet. The Webstart-Versions work well on all environments. Just not with IE 6.0 and 7.0.

Any idea? I don't understand the difference.

Problem solved. There was an underscore used in the hostname. This is not allowed with Internet Explorer 6.0 and 7.0. It causes the loss of the session.

Hi Kurt,

I have the issue again. My Server is Windows 7 64 bits, IIS 7, JBoss 6.0. When I use IE 8 from the server machine, the cookie is persistant after IE was closed. But if I use IE 8 from another machine to access web site, the cookie lost after restart IE.

I tried to use Google browser Chrome, the cookie works fine.

My server name has an underscore before, then I changed the name and removed the underscore, restarted twice. It still not work. Please advise.

Thanks and regards,

The guess is that IE 8 in the other machine is not configured correctly....
