Hi! I recently played around with SQLSession backed by a mysql database. My setup was the following: mysite/ mysite/std_header_html DTML document mysite/std_footer_html DTML document mysite/index_html DTML document mysite/Session SQL Session mysite/folder/index_html DTML document The idea is to do all the session stuff in the sql_header_html, basically doing the <dtml-call Session>. Being in mysite/index_html everything works. The Session is created and when logging in via a form the actual userid is stored in the Session_Data. Now when jumping to mysite/folder/index_html it's not working anymore. I am again using a <dtml-var std_header_html> at the beginning which aquires the dtml document in the parent folder. The problem is now that a new session is created all the time although one should be still available when accessing mysite/folder/index_html (thus the cookie should still be available in the request). When moving the <dtml-call Session> into mysite/folder/index_html everything works. So why is this? To track it down a little more I checked which cookies are stored in REQUEST.cookies. I did this in std_header_html and mysite/folder/index_html: std_header_html: <dtml-in "REQUEST.cookies.keys()"> <dtml-var sequence-item> = <dtml-var "REQUEST.cookies[_['sequence-item']]"><br> </dtml-in> and the same in mysite/folder/index_html: <dtml-in "REQUEST.cookies.keys()"> <dtml-var sequence-item> = <dtml-var "REQUEST.cookies[_['sequence-item']]"><br> </dtml-in> <dtml-call Session> <dtml-var std_header_html> I would expect that both loops would produce the same output but it isn't. In the loop in mysite/folder/index_html the cookie is there and in the loop done by std_header_html it isn't. So this seems to be the reason why always a new session is created when only doing the session work in the std_header_html. Can someone explain this to me? ;-) (Actually putting the Session call into index_html is not the problem but for modularizing things I would like it more to be in a central place.) Hope someone knows more than I do :) -- christian
