Hello all. Interesting problem here that I am surprised has not yet been reported in the forums. Unless I am missing something, I have been searching for it for a couple of hours.
Here is my situation - I have a hosted account with Go Daddy and they allow you to create domain name sthat point to sub directories of other domains. Simple enough except that there seems to be an issue with cookies being set.
When I try to login as an Admin I get the dreaded:
Error: Un-Successful Login
Your login was un-successful due to a session tracking error.
Please ensure that cookies are enabled on your web browser and you are not hiding or masking your IP address.
I see a couple of people have run into similar issues which were resolved with cache/cookie clearing or by changing a function in the session-data.asp file. Unfortunately neither one of those has worked for me.
Godaddy's Help system has a Help topic that I think it on-the-money but I don't know how to easily configure this in Webwiz Forums. Hopefully it is a global replacement.
Their FAQ says:
Why is ASP being blocked on my server when attempting to read cookies?

# - Print This Article Symptom:ASP is blocked when attempting to read cookies on an aliased domain. For
example: Main Domain: http://www.coolexample.com Alias Domain: http://www.coolexample.org Alias Folder: /coolexample_org This works: http://coolexample.com/coolexample_org/cookies.asp This does not work: http://coolexample.org/cookies.asp Cause:When an aliased domain is inside a sub-application within the application
root, the cookie is created with a default path of the sub-folder. For
example: Name: CE Content: Cookie+Value Host: coolexample.com Path: /coolexample_org When a cookie call is made, by default it does not include a path. As a
result, cookies work on the primary domain, but not the aliased one. Resolution:When you create a cookie, you need to add a line of code to reflect the
correct path for that subdomain. Response.Cookies("CE").Path=""
Where CE is the name of your cookie. This will create the following
cookie: Name: CE Content: Cookie+Value Host: coolexample.com Path: /
How can I easily change this path in Webwiz? Thanks in advance!
