Hi,
Here's a patch to take care of cookies when you have multiple wikis on
the same site. Basically the wikis get confused since all of them use
the identifier DokuWikiAUTH to identify the cookie.
I had tried using the "path" argument to "setcookie", but it didn't seem
to work. Anyway the PHP documentation mentions that the path argument is
not handled correctly by IE 4, so decided to try something else.
I replaced the name 'DokuWikiAUTH' with a constant DOKU_COOKIE. auth.php
sets this constant to the md5 hash of $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] since
that contains enough path information to make it unique on a particular
site. I had tried using "urlencode" but that does not provide an
acceptable cookie identifier according to the Netscape cookie spec.
Using an md5 works quite well. I have two copies of a recent darcs
version, both running side by side ... they no longer confuse the auth
information stored in the cookies.
Sameer.
