Cookie lost in RequestDispatcher

I am trying to set cookies in a controller servlet before dispatching to a JSP file, but the cookies are not set in the JSP file.
Servlet
Cookie cookie= new Cookie("userName", "wolfmah");
cookie.setMaxAge(60*60*24*7*1);
cookie.setDomain("wolfmahheaven.net");
response.addCookie(cookie);
RequestDispatcher rd= getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/cookie1.jsp");
rd.forward(request, response);
JSP (cookie1.jsp)
Cookie[] cookies= request.getCookies();
if (cookies != null) {
for (int i= 0; i < cookies.length; ++i) {
Cookie currentCookie= cookies;
if (currentCookie.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("userName"))
out.println(currentCookie.getValue());
else
out.println("null");
The only output that I get is "null" two times because Tomcat seem to create 2 cookies itself, but mine isn't there.

You will never see the cookies in the forwarded JSP/Servlet. That is because you are setting it to the
response and trying to get it from request.getCookie() method.
Actually I think your requirement is a bit different. You basically want to send data in the forwarded jsp/servlet. That you can do it by three ways ie. request.setAttribute(); , session.setAttribute(); , context.setAttribute(); . So, if you want to set cookie then set it from the last jsp/servlet in your fw chain. And just pass the values to the last jsp/servlet of the chain.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sujoy

  • Cookies lost in clustered environment

              When clustered, app was getting a message that a cookie dated Jan. 1, 1970 had expired.
              It appears that the sessions are getting lost in the cluster.
              Sticky bit is on. Declustering the application seemed to lessen or solve the problem.
              Clustering is 3 servers, with 8 virtual IP addresses on each server. Common file
              system for app and WebLogic 6.1 SP2
              Anyone seen this before?
              Thanks in advance.
              

    Do you mean to say some of the objects dont get initialized on some nodes in the cluster?
              Are you sure, you are deploying your applications to the cluster and not to individual nodes?
              Can you give more detail on what you are doing?

  • Owa_cookie login username cookie lost after logout

    I have a problem with owa_cookie. It seems very simple. When I am logged in, username appears automatically in screen, but after I have logged out, username is not retrieved.
    It seems that the cookie is not saved, as I do not find a trace of it in the cookie directory. Any suggestions?
    Code listed below:
    On load / before header:
    declare
    c owa_cookie.cookie;
    v varchar2(255) := null;
    begin
    c := owa_cookie.get( 'LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE' );
    :P4_USERNAME := lower( c.vals(1) );
    exception
    when others then null;
    end;
    On submit / after computations and validations:
    begin
    if :P4_USERNAME is not null
    then
    owa_util.mime_header( 'text/html', FALSE );
    owa_cookie.send( name => 'LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE'
    , value => lower( :P4_USERNAME )
    , domain => 'dev.naturalmoney.org'
    end if;
    end;

    Hi,
    Try
    begin
    owa_util.mime_header('text/html', FALSE);
    owa_cookie.send(
        name    => 'LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE'
        ,value   => lower(:P101_USERNAME)
        ,expires => sysdate + 356
    exception when others then null;
    end;Regards,

  • Cookies lost in Safari (IDs and Passwords)

    Since the latest update (7.1), as soon as I navigate away from a page in Safari, I lose my ID and password and have to sign in again.  That has never been the case in four years of having an iPhone.

    I have checked this. The ID and password were there, but not functioning. I have deleted them. When I enter them now, Safari doesn't ask if I want to remember them.

    You should always use beta test versions with a new and separate profile and keep the regular release so you can use that version in case of problems.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager
    Firefox 4.0b1 is the first of the beta test release versions and still has a lot of bugs.
    Such releases are meant for testing only so if bugs are found then they can get reported and fixed before the final 4.0 version gets released.
    If you do not have experience with such test releases then you are better of with the latest Firefox 3.6.6 release.

  • Lost bookmarks, cookies and history when I moved the Folder 'Users' from the C disk to D disk. What can I do to retrieve them intact?

    Lost bookmarks, cookies and history when I moved the Folder 'Users' from the C disk to D disk. What can I do to retrieve them intact?

    Hi voyant
    I would put the Users folder back... moving it will cause a lot of issues with applications.
    Instead you can just copy individual files/folders from C:\Users\your_username\Documents,Pictures,Music.... to your D drive to save space on C.

  • Y Firefox is set to delete cookies on shutdown. What happens if power is suddenly lost: are those cookies still readable and operational?

    I was logged in on Facebook when my laptop suddenly lost its power. Will someone in service cente be able to enter my account upon opening my Firefox after repair? Windows 7 account is password protected, password is unknown toservicemen.

    Firefox should keep the cookies in memory during the session and only write them to disk if Firefox is closed if cookies are kept beyond the session or if there is an allow exception to keep some cookies.
    Be aware that protecting Windows with a password usually doesn't mean much because it may be possible to boot the computer via a CD-ROM or USB stick and access local disks directly.

  • Some cookie settings lost each time Firefox closes

    Hi there,
    Some of my Cookie settings are lost each time Firefox restarts. These specifically relate to web addresses I have entered as Exceptions to the Cookie settings in the Privacy settings tab. I will find that they have been deleted and will have to re-enter them each time. This is annoying if you want to use certain websites that require third-party cookies but you also want to maintain a high privacy level. For example, when using Feedly. Additionally, sometimes my Persona is disabled when Firefox is restarted and I have to re-enable it manually. This problem is sporadic.
    I have a number of add-ons installed but this problem is very recent and these add-ons have not proved a problem before. Anyone else with the same problem? Is it a bug or a setting I can fix? Please help.
    Thanks!

    Do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
    Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.

  • Had to refresh Windows 8, Firefox was removed and I lost my bookmarks, browser history, and cookies. Is there any way to recover?

    Due to recurring problems with Windows 8, I had to "refresh" my laptop. As a result, my computer was reset to its factory settings, and Mozilla Firefox was stripped out. I have lost my bookmarks, browser history, and cookies.
    Is this lost information still present somewhere on my computer's hard drive? (I did get a list of removed apps afterwards.) Is there any way to recover and restore my bookmarks, at the very least?
    I have yet to reinstall Firefox, because I do not want to overwrite anything that might still be present.

    Hold on before installing. Firefox isn't going to look in the C:\Windows.old folder.
    To show hidden files, see: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files
    Then look for:
    C:\Windows.old\Users\''username''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    Can you find a folder there named something gibberish.default?

  • JSP form values lost upon servlet request (RequestDispatcher)

    Hello,
    I have a query screen (jsp) that calls a servlet and gets results. However, although the results or errors display just fine (I do a setAttribute for them), I lose the initial values in the query form (values that the user input - which are stored in the request object). Shouldn't those values be maintained and displayed, since I'm using the RequestDispatcher and thus, I should have the same request object? Thank you, C Turner
    *****My JSP (the related code)*****
    <jsp:useBean id="form" class="com.foo.ActivityBean" scope="session">

    } catch (CreateException ce) {
    errors.add("There was a problem retrieving the requested data from the database.");
    request.setAttribute("results", resultsVector);

    //Data is not okay.

    rd = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/public_html/ActivityQuery.jsp");
    //rd.forward(request, response);
    rd.include(request, response);

    For those interested in my question, here's what I figured out.
    Instead of:
    <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="fromDate" SIZE="9" VALUE="<jsp:getProperty name="form" property="fromDate"/>">
    Use:
    <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="fromDate" SIZE="9" VALUE="<%out.print(request.getParameter("fromDate"));%>">
    This allows the input field to persist the query value instead of blanking it out when the results are displayed. -ct

  • In Windows XP I have lost control over third party cookies

    I bought a refurbished computer with Windows XP. But now I have noticed there is no control over cookies in Firefox. In Windows Vista there was 'block third party cookies' there was 'state which websites to permanently block' or 'allow' and even then I was only using Firefox... Now there is nothing. On top of that none of the "cookies control" add-ons for Firefox seem to be any good at all. I don't know what to do!
    Why would Firefox change with Windows XP?? I can see with IE of course but Windows operating system has nothing to do with Firefox, if you know what I mean.

    Please review this information [[Enabling and disabling cookies]]

  • Can someone help me when Firefox closes randomly it removes all the cookies and cache, and I am not able to restore lost tabs...?

    For a while now Firefox has randomly shut down for reasons unknown. Sometimes windows reports the error but not always. When I start Firefox back up again, it does not restore my tabs. Also as an added bonus it deletes the cookies and cache, and I don't know why. Furthermore this occurrence has become more and more frequent. Just in the last hour along before writing this complaint, Firefox crashed three times right as I switch users, but not every time I switched. I am a taboholic, addicted to tabs, sometimes 70+, and this is the final straw. This frequency became more and more prominent a few days ago. When it first crashed, Windows was kind enough to let me know of the error which first occurred one to two weeks ago. It has become the very bane of my internet surfing. Someone please help, or I will have to renounce my allegiance to Firefox and switch to the dark side that is Crome.

    <blockquote>... or I will have to renounce my allegiance to Firefox ...</blockquote>
    There is no citizenship oath involved in using Firefox, it's a piece of software.
    Look, if Firefox isn't generating any crash reports, you more than likely have an operating system or hardware issue. If Firefox is generating crash reports you can retrieve that information and post the report numbers here.
