    There's a serious regression with cookies. Authentication doesn't work any more with VBulletin and that pre-release. Reverting to 1.4.13 fixes it.

    Yes there are serious issues with cookies if using this latest version of lighty. Many users reported problems after starting to use 1.4.14.

    Have the cookie problems been fixed in the release...I don't want to upgrade if it is going to screw things up.
  4. darix Fri, 13 Apr 2007 18:30:49 GMT
    so now the question is: what kind of cookie problems? any way to reproduce it? and please blog comments are not the proper way to report bugs. please use http://trac.lighttpd.net/

    It is fixed in 1.4.15. If we would have a ticket in bug-system we could have it be fixed in the final .14, now we built a .15 with just that fix.

    Hey Jan, thank you very much for fixing the problem and I will report future bugs to the bug tracker.
