Hi there,

Rails 2.2.2 on Debian Server.

i’m setting a cookie like

cookies[:tg\_usn] = {  
:value =\> @user.username,  
:expires =\> 5.day.from\_now,  
}

This work’s fine in development environment, but when i start mongrel  
with production environment (same server, same network), no cookie is  
set by the application.

Any ideas what’s happening here?

thanx a lot for any help,

regards  
D.
