ColdFusion MX , IE, and 3rd level domains

CF-Talk, CFMX/6.1 on Apache/2.0.48 I have an application residing at xxxxx.org that I've copied for demonstration purposes to demo_xxxxx.yyyyyy.com. The session/cookie management works fine in Mozilla, but Internet Explorer seemingly refuses to set a cookie in order for the session management to work. I've tried adding setdomaincookies="yes" to CFAPPLICATION and domain=".demo_xxxxx.yyyyyy.com" to my CFCOOKIE tags with no change in behavior--Moz works, IE doesn't.         <cfapplication name="demo_xxxxx" sessionmanagement="Yes"         setdomaincookies="yes"         sessiontimeout="#createtimespan(0,0,45,0)#">         <cfcookie name="xxxxx_member" domain=".demo_xxxxx.yyyyyy.com"         value="#encrypteduuid#"> I am assuming that this has something to do with the fact that I'm using a 3rd level domain, but I've got similar CF applications running on Windows with 3rd level domains that work fine all around. If anyone has troubleshooting tips, I'd greatly appreciate it. ~ Ubqtous ~

Interesting. I am running CFMX 6.1 / on apache 2.0.46 / RH Enterprise 3.0 If you like we can set up a test on one of my servers and see if we an replicate the issue... I  personally have not run into this, but I haven't tried this either. --Josh --- Exciteworks -- expert hosting for less! http://exciteworks.com Ubqtous wrote: ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

I appreciate the offer, but it won't be possible for me to post this application elsewhere. Hopefully I'll run into someone that's had a similar issue so I can do some advanced troubleshooting on my end. Thanks! ~ Ubqtous ~

No worries!  I understand about the app...I do a lot of Gov work that can't be out on the net. If need be, it would be pretty easy to test the cookie issue without using any of your app...I can give you an FTP account and a url and you can test. Just trying to think of troubleshooting options...also I would be interested if the same problem exists accross servers, or if it is some config issue on yours... Let me know if you find a solution! --Josh ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

Debbie was kind enough to point me to: http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn18335.htm Basically I had an illegal character (an underscore) in my demo host name: demo_blah.somedomain.com I must have been thinking of allowable characters for CF variables and not domain names when I set that up... d'oh! Thanks again for the concern :) ~ Ubqtous ~

If you have an underscore in your domain name, that would be the problem. http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn18335.htm ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----
