Vincent Laemmel	Tuesday 10 May 2011 11:45:11 am Hi, I cannot share sessions between two siteaccess (http and https) Here is my configuration : a single Exponential 4.4 instance (common database) on a linux server (Debian 5) siteaccess A : https://myextranet.mydomain.com siteaccess B : http://mysite.mydomain.com (using HostMatchType=map and HostMatchMapItems in : override/site.ini.append) Session configuration in /override/site.ini.append : [Session] SessionNameHandler=default SessionNamePerSiteAccess=false (nothing else in the specific siteaccess) Use case : my user logs in the extranet (https) and switch from here to the other site (http) with an html link. This authentificated user should be connected on the site with his previous profil (sessions shared beetwen the two siteaccess). In facts, the user is set to anonymous on the second site (and cannot see the Exponential toolbar to administrate the contents in my own case...) Any information would be very helpfull ;) Vincent

André R.	Wednesday 11 May 2011 1:27:00 pm Try debugging the session cookie, 1st you seem to use different sub domain so you need to setup php.ini setting session.cookie_domain to make sure cookie can be shared. Also disable session.cookie_secure if enabled. On 4.5 and up you can control these settings from site.ini as well. eZ Online Editor 5: http://projects.ez.no/ezoe \|\| eZJSCore (Ajax): http://projects.ez.no/ezjscore \|\| eZ Publish EE http://ez.no/eZPublish/eZ-Publish-Enterprise-Subscription @: http://twitter.com/andrerom
