Yes. In that case you have more work to do. The least amount of effort is to add some indication of the app as the first element of the URL:
http://www.domain.com/app1/some/apth
http://www.domain.com/app2/some/other/path


then
public String domainForIDCookies()
{
        return "/app1";
}

This _won't_ work with component action or any other URL that is not in the above format.

Otherwise, you need to replace how WO works with session ID cookies and that is a fair bit of effort.f

If you had more that one (different) wo app running couldn't the wrong sessionid be passed back if both are being used at the same time by the same user?

Simple!  Add this method to Session:

/**
* Despite the name, this is actually the path used in the cookies for
the session ID and instance number. Returning just the root '/' ensures
that the cookies are always sent for any request to the site. This was
needed so that they are sent with URLs which will be rewritten. Note that
super.domainForIDCookies() would return: /cgi-bin/WebObjects/App.woa
*/
public String domainForIDCookies()
{
return "/";

Hi,

We use Apache rewrite rules to convert our WebObjects URLs into simpler
URLs. However, if I use [L, PT] (last, pass through) instead of [L, R]
(last, redirect) in my rewrite rules, WebObjects creates a new session for
each request.


Is there a workaround for this? The problem is that if I use [L, R] in my
rewrite rule, a 302 redirect is generated for every click to our sites.
That¹s like double the number of hits to our web server. I have the session
ID set in a cookie (and not in the URL), so you would think that WebObjects
would still be able to read that and direct requests to the same instance
and session for subsequent requests.


I¹m kind of thinking of a possible workaround right now. It may have to do
with the default path that WO uses when it sets the woinst and wosid
cookies. I think the default path is /cgi-bin/WebObjects/WOApp.woa. Perhaps
there¹s a way to change it to Œ/¹ just like you can when you create your own
WOCookie.


Does anyone have any ideas about this or workarounds?


Thanks,
