Hi,
I've been using TBNL for a few weeks and am encountering some strange behaviour when sessions time out. Specifically, once a session times out I start getting multiple cookies written to the browser -- as the user navigates around the site the cookie, and so the session, changes.
I am wondering if this is a known problem. If so, maybe some advice. Otherwise, I'll try to isolate the problem better so I can provide a more precise description of what is happening.
The restart does not fix this problem, but it is a lot clearer what is going on. I still have not isolated the problem, I'll try to do that today (if I don't manage it today other things will start interfering and it'll take a bit longer)
This happens with both safari and firefox (I haven't tried any other browsers), though the behaviour is a bit different. In the case of Safari I get a cookie for each page I visited in the previous 'session' plus one new cookie. In the case of firefox, I get two cookies: the old one and the new one, and there is some sort of confusion between the two. Firefox is a simpler situation so I'll try to isolate the problem using it.
There is another problem for which I have no explanation: when the lisp system is first started up it takes several attempts to load the page before the page is loaded (it isn't getting as far as the lisp program I think). Same thing: if this is familiar, maybe some advice... otherwise I'll try to describe the problem better.
The restart of Apache fixes this as far as I can tell. Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm using Lispworks 4.4 professional on OS/X (10.3.8) using what ever the current versions of Apache 1.x (for OS/X) and mod_lisp.
Other that that, TBNL works beautifully. Very nice.
Cheers, Bob
