Reading cookie in asp.net made by ASP

[Liviathan]

Different apps. I need to read the cookie made by the ASP page when my asp.net page is called. When the .net runs the cookie never loads.




ASP CODE:
Sub createNReturnGUID(lid)

Response.Cookies ("yourRequestID")("RequestID") = lid
Response.Cookies ("yourRequestID").expires = Now() + 60

End Sub


.net CODE:
dim cookie as httpcookie
cookie = request.cookies("yourRequestID")

Check what domain and virtual path are being used. I believe ASP.Net defaults to / for the path, and ASP defaults to something more deeply nested (the virtual directory, generally). Just one thought.

I tried the virtual path thing no go.

Would it matter that I'm running the ASP page from the web and the .net local?

Really stumped here...and i just need to read ONE value from the dumb cookie.

Yes, that could matter a lot.

What is the URL of the ASP page and what is the URL of the .NET page?

Wouldn't that make the domain different? That is why I asked what the domain is... are they being set to the same thing in both apps?

the asp is not setting the domain to anything...asp.net doesn't set the cookie just reads it.

The ASP is an old app someone else wrote a few years back.

ASP: www.allinternetnow.com

.net, right now is localhost as i am still developing.

Those two apps can never read each others cookies. An application can only read a cookie set by a page in its own domain or subdomain.

Read this article on cookie basics.

well eventually is going to be in its own domain...i tried running my app in the same server with same domain and still didn't work.
