Cookies Disabled message

Hi,

I am trying to support session across sub-domains eg. brol.com, sub1.brol.com, sub2.brol.com and to do so I’ve used the sessionCookieDomain attribute in the element of my tomcat configuration. I’ve forced the domain to be say ‘brol.com’.
Since the change I can’t make vaadin work anymore, I keep receiving the ‘cookies disable’ message.

Is vaadin using other cookies than the JSESSIONID ? What error could trigger the ‘cookies disable’ message (besides not activating cookies of course :wink: )

thanks in advance

Nicolas

There should be no other cookies used than the standard JSESSIONID.

The cookies disabled message is displayed if there is an UIDL request, which is not a full repaint, but there is no session id available (HttpServletRequest.getRequestedSessionId returns null). Typically there is first a “GET /” request and in this request the session id cookie is set. This is followed by a repaint all and the first user interaction then triggers the type of UIDL requests used to check for the presence of a session id.
