Hi, Im trying to use url rewriting (in this case ISAPI Redirect) to translate a search engine friendly URL (ie xyz.com/123_keyword_product_name.html) into a tomcat one (xyz.com/app/product.do?id=123). This all works fine and dandy however there is a big problem with it. One of the uses I have is to map tomcat applications to the root context as far as the URL is concerned, but leave them under another context within tomcat itself. I use a shared tomcat server for several applications so they cant all be on the root, but reponses to search engines are a lot better if the URL appears that way. The problem is that in the above example, the Tomcat server responds with "Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=132456789; Path=/app". This Path is of course that of the context path of the application. The browser doesnt thus send this cookie with the next request because the request appears to be to the / path; Tomcat thus gets a new request with no session ID and issues another one again to /app. Is there any way I can force the session cookie to be written to the root context instead of the context of the application?
