[ic] Losing session cookie after login

[Jamie Neil]

Hi all,

I've got a problem with my IC install (4.9.7cvs) where the session cookie
seems to get dropped and not reinitialised after a user successfully logs
in. Up until the user logs in, the URLs are all clean (i.e. no ?id=...), but
afterwards I always get the id and mv_pc variables in the URL until I either
close the browser or clear the old cookie out of the cache.

My etc/profile.login file has the following:

        [set mv_no_count][/set]
        [set mv_no_session_id][/set]

which I assume is what is clearing the cookie. Is it necessary to do this
when a user logs in? If it is, what I don't understand is why a new cookie
is not issued to replace the old one.

Can anyone shed some light on what might be causing this and how I might fix
it?
