Hey Guys I'm having an issue with my website where a user will sometimes be switched to someone else's session. Tracing this down it is because they have been given another users cookie. After searching through the logs I was able to narrow the issue to Apache.
I have apache setup with mem cache and proxy load balancer with 4 mongrel's server (those that don't know ruby on rails server). With this set up I was able to find a bug that was close to my description ( http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42935). The answer was to add this line CacheIgnoreHeaders Set-Cookie. Though the issue still exists. I have searched the net and I can't find anything else on the subject. Does anyone know what could be the issue? Could Apache still be caching the cookies? below mem cache setup <IfModule mem_cache> CacheEnable mem / MCacheSize 16000 MCacheMaxObjectCount 500 MCacheMinObjectSize 1 MCacheMaxObjectSize 3048 CacheDisable /accounts/ CacheIgnoreHeaders Set-Cookie </IfModule>
