Chris Thanks again for your replies. Meh, sorry for the double-negative about the cookies. :-)
One thing I learned by trial and error is that accessing the internal web site by name behaves wrongly, but accessing it by IP behaves rightly! Also, I must be wrong about the cookies being enabled/disabled anyway. I did the IE9 trace Ameer suggested, and it was revealing. It appears the cookies are conditional depending on how the server is accessed. Will follow up in another message. -- Cris Berneburg, Lead Software Engineer CACI, IRMA Project, 703-679-5313 -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Schultz [mailto:ch...@christopherschultz.net] Sent: Friday, December 12, 2014 3:15 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: tomcat on windows 2012 weirdness -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Ameer, On 12/12/14 3:11 PM, Ameer Mawia wrote: > On Sat, Dec 13, 2014 at 1:06 AM, Christopher Schultz < > ch...@christopherschultz.net> wrote: > > Cris, > > On 12/12/14 2:18 PM, Cris Berneburg - US wrote: >>>> Hi Chris >>>> >>>> Thanks for your replies.

A double-negative. I read too quickly. Well, the protocol analyzer will certainly help inform the conversation. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJUi0zKAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYZHAQAJYqjchuvYXOuYQN2PmjAbly dnlmXiOJIeaPVCaVtFy2oBxhxP0KaAZHFUdofF2n9Fx2s5EIL5fxexIp0wkQmmuE PORs1Wm5Iz0ArOVCXcP3lBgQFYB/TRY0ryo/2MTQE7Eto77frBGL6gduqiHeelJn vfJ9DF1IujxWadGVzhF6277wkANrL/RBJBr23ly/dBGmZ09mzGMtGWbLdXPxN6rv IimC1K8/r4RKbz8qYRib1CCx2Rmn5xfxw5aAp0I71xyUdBygSH6DiZmzLKDalCnV OqX6ujD5TlFO7x56I7/C+BdohZUXopTKQwVFnvbgbTsfBwZ9qNQCFtcI6QauYJWK B9Q8Jo5uZ+7kSE/5U9EY6G6vZUKGBi2iqc13CWMrpMNOavjO9vIc823WBjkfPVIP cd8WQgwjQaHLooGeHKxkPZDiUKXsIK4/aGLs38V2Oe3NvTnZLuWqAcXyuwke2/sP Yav+Yp9F7QKIZnlJWSjIM3Nk4DZjg4P2p3pi/N+k3ko0g/4L9P4tBirE2BwzT/Yu CpFLF//Io0xTeSk5BbB2ghTBY5dzZOZNA4oNhTAXvgvrLaENYKb2vwRu8ArACVR+ bBnFGgkEC+vl26KgcZVJEfrj+9Q+Q9eMAs7VkAIikfizZYogYdXBKNXdj+Y72LM2 /Cup5W8jGgaXJnzLCm8k =lmci -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
