Getting different SessionIDs
« on: February 11, 2015, 11:25:00 AM »
A small simple Webserver works fine when running locally and accessing it with IE. I put the Webserver onto a Windows 2003 Std server on the internal network. When I access this Webserver initially I get a specific SessionID and set some Session values and my form is displayed. If I then enter a value on the form my debugging info shows that my SessionID is NOT the same and then of course if I do a GSV('something') I get nothing because I'm in an entirely different session. I did not of course close and reopen the browser so would expect the SessionID to remain the same and when run locally the SessionID doesn't change. Am I missing something?

NT 8.34,   C9.1   ABC

Addition New information:

I tried the same test with FireFox and Chrome and everything works correctly so the "problem" seems to be limited to Internet Explorer, specifically I'm running IE 11.

there's an outside chance your IE install with the problem is set to "no cookies".
You'll be able to see if this is the case by looking at the log on the server and seeing what (if any) sessionID cookie is sent with each request.

Upon doing further testing and diagnostics I discovered that when I connected to the Webserver with a DNS entry (http://myserver::88) with IE I would not get back the SessionID. Changing to using the IP address (http://123.123.123.123:88) allowed the session value to be returned and all was well.
