Current Tomcat: 8.0.53
New Tomcat:-8.5.40
AEP:7.1
OD Version:-07.10.12.02
We have a Orchestration designer speech application which is trying to invoke another submodule and we are getting this error

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cookie name [/Project_Data-___DDSESSIONID] is a reserved token.

where Project_Data is a reusable module and we are seeing this issue on any version of apache tomcat 8.5.X. Any idea how to resolve this issue.

Hi. Take a look here (section 'Constructor Details'):

https://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/servlet/http/Cookie.html#Cookie%28java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String%29


-> IllegalArgumentException - if the cookie name is null or empty or contains any illegal characters (for example, a comma, space, or semicolon) or matches a token reserved for use by the cookie protocol.

also here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1969232/what-are-allowed-characters-in-cookies

and RFC6265
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc6265.txt

The RFC 6265 defines token as 1*<any CHAR except CTLs or separators> and separators are (, ), <, >, @, ,, ;, :, \, ", /, [, ], ?, =, {, }, SP and HT, so cookie names should be alphanums plus !#$%&'*+-.?^_`|~

Hi Massimo,

The issue seems to be defect in the Dialog designer as we are able to replicate this issue by creating a dummpy project with a empty flow.
The issue seems to be when a speech project try to connect to a data project which is a reusable module. The issue doesnt seems to be there when a speech project connect to another speech project which is a reusable module.

In this log below NJ_EZ_General is the main module which is trying to connect to TestData module. I have attached the screenshot of the flow
