Sure. My cookie-finding code is just basically this:
int UserLevel = 4;
Cookie cookies[] = request.getCookies();
if ( cookies != null ) {
%>
Length: <%=cookies.length%><p>
<%
int co;
Cookie oreo;
for ( co = 0; co < cookies.length; co++ ) {
oreo = cookies[co];
%>
<%=oreo.getName()%> <%=oreo.getValue()%>
<%
if ( oreo.getName().equals("UserLevel") ) {
UserLevel = Integer.parseInt( oreo.getValue() );
}
}
}
You can see I have a couple debug statements. Length is 1
and the only cookie is JSESSIONID 034B86006263B7E9E68EE7A660DC728E.
Though I do see it in the catalina log and the edit->preferences (UserLevel 0).
The cookie-setting is not mine, but rather the person who left. It is kind of
complicated
so I will just show the relative parts (you can ignore the else part). As I
said it shows up
in the log file and edit->preference
if(err.errcode == 0){
Cookie cok = new Cookie("UserLevel",sUserLevel);
System.out.println( "Added COOKIE UserLevel: " + sUserLevel );
response.addCookie(cok);
response.sendRedirect("/dmaconf/html/dma_config.html");
}else{
Cookie cok = new Cookie("UserLevel","");
response.addCookie(cok);
tmpl = wm.getTemplate("login.wm");
err.errmsg += "Please try again or contact the adminstrator.";
c.put("errorcode", err.errcode);
c.put("errormsg", err.errmsg);
tmpl.write(out, c);
out.flush();
}

That sounds pretty standard. You ought to be able to replicate this

Can you post your "cookie finding" code? Also, post the portion of your
(new) code that /sets/ the cookie. Often, cookie-related issues are tied
to incorrect setting of the "path" of the cookie. Also, are you using
SSL at all? If so, please describe any changes from/to SSL requests
during this process.

Oh, good. There are several tools available for ff that are useful in
this regard. LiveHTTPHeaders is an add-on that allows you to snoop the
request and response headers of HTTP transactions. Once installed, you
can just open a LiveHTTPHeaders window and then go through your login
process. You can see the headers for all page requests until you clear
the buffer, so you can verify that, at least, the cookies are being sent
correctly.
