> Essentially cookie-based sessions are broken in major browsers and curl unless -Dorg.apache.tomcat.util.http.ServerCookie.FWD_SLASH_IS_SEPARATOR=false is passed on boot. It's likely a large percentage of the people that try AS7 Final will run into this issue and have to spend time trying to figure out why sessions aren't working.
> To summarize the above links, what's happening is the cookie's Path value is being enclosed in quotes. Browsers don't expect this and thus when the browser receives a cookie it doesn't send that cookie back on subsequent requests because the browser doesn't think the cookie's Path value matches the user's path.
