What do my cookies eat ?! Cookie not transmitted in asmx call

I have a problem with a cookie (browser).

I have a Sharepoint page (http: // myServer: 24628 / sites / myApp / myDocumentLibrary / test.aspx). When the page is requested, I can see in the request headers (using firebug) that there is an ASP.NET_SessionId cookie.

Request Headers:

Host: myServer:24628 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:7.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0.1 Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Connection: keep-alive Cookie: ASP.NET_SessionId=2vhaxii0hxqeazii2sgw3q55; WSS_KeepSessionAuthenticated=24628 If-Modified-Since: Thu, 27 Oct 2011 15:41:15 GMT Cache-Control: max-age=0

Answer headers:

 Cache-Control: private, max-age=0 Content-Length: 210604 Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Expires: Wed, 12 Oct 2011 15:41:24 GMT Last-Modified: Thu, 27 Oct 2011 15:41:24 GMT Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 X-Powered-By: ASP.NET MicrosoftSharePointTeamServices: 12.0.0.6421 X-AspNet-Version: 2.0.50727 Set-Cookie: WSS_KeepSessionAuthenticated=24628; path=/ http%3A%2F%2FmyServer%3A24628%2Fsites%2FmyApp%2FDiscovery=WorkspaceSiteName=UG9ydGFs&WorkspaceSiteUrl=aHR0cDovL3dlYmFwcDAxOjI0NjI4L3NpdGVzL251bnRpbw==&WorkspaceSiteTime=MjAxMS0xMC0yN1QxNTo0MTozMQ==; expires=Sat, 26-Nov-2011 16:41:31 GMT; path=/_vti_bin/Discovery.asmx Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2011 15:41:31 GMT

After loading the page, I make an asmx (POST) request:

Request Headers:

 Host myServer:24628 User-Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:7.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0.1 Accept text/javascript, text/html, application/xml, text/xml, */* Accept-Language en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding gzip, deflate Accept-Charset ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Connection keep-alive X-Requested-With XMLHttpRequest X-Prototype-Version 1.7 Content-Type application/json; charset=UTF-8 Referer http://myServer:24628/sites/myApp/myDocumentLibrary/test.aspx Content-Length 42 Cookie WSS_KeepSessionAuthenticated=24628

Right before calling asmx, I am warning about the cookie 'ASP.NET_SessionId'. It is there and this value is correct.

In a call to notify.asmx, I need to get a cookie value in order to be able to run some logic. This obviously fails. What's going on here?

Ow yea,

Mana.

javascript is really loaded from another place. As Chris Lively said in a comment on my question.

Your cookie is not sent because the Host field does not match two requests:

Host: webapp01: 24628

Host myServer: 24628

Covering all the databases, do you have [WebMethod(EnableSession = true)] ?

Does this only happen in IE? We saw this only with IE, I had to add a P3P header record, but this was to solve the internetwork SSO.
