I'm trying to set the port on a cookie in ASP.NET (code below), but I'm getting a very unusual error at runtime (below the code). Any thoughts?
target.Cookie = new Cookie
{
Comment = "Test Comment",
CommentUri = new System.Uri("http://www.tempuri.org"),
Discard = false,
Domain = "tempuri.com",
Expired = false,
Expires = new DateTime(2015, 12, 31),
HttpOnly = false,
Name = "TestCookie",
Path = "/",
Port = "443",
Secure = false,
Value = "Test Value",
Version = 1,
};
Exception:
System.Net.CookieException: The 'Port'='443' part of the cookie is invalid..
Edit: Sorry, I meant to mention that I also tried Port = "80" with no success.
Unfortunately I never did find a good solution to this. All I wound up doing is removing the port definition. I did notice something in the W3C spec for cookies regarding ports, and if I recall, version 2 cookies don't support the specification of a port. I've tried creating the cookie without the port, then setting the port later, but with no luck. I continue to get a runtime exception of ...threw exception: System.Net.CookieException: The 'Port'='80' part of the cookie is invalid..
Sorry this wasn't more help...
