I have the following nginx conf file (shortened for the purose of this
question) that is creating a cookie:
map $http_referer $setCookie {
default "";
~*somewebsite\.com
“referrer=bl;Domain=.mysite.com;Max-Age=31536000”;
}
server{
listen 80;
server_name mysite.com www.mysite.com dev.mysite.com;
root /var/www/mysite.com;
access_log /var/log/nginx/mysite.com.log spiegle;
add_header Set-Cookie $setCookie;
location /{
#add_header Set-Cookie $setCookie;
}
}
The issue is that if I click on a link on somewebsite.com
it navigates
to
mysite, but does not create the cookie. If I then refresh the page it
will
create the cookie. Why do I have to refresh to have the cookie created
and
how can I get around this?
