Session cleared after setting cookie?

[Paul]

I'm having a problem with the session being reset after setting a
cookie. This is not supposed to happen. If I comment out the Add
line below the site works normally, the session persists. Help.

vs2003/.net 1.1

HttpCookie httpCookie = new HttpCookie("myCookieName");
httpCookie.Value = (string)Session["myString"];

// BUG: adding the cookie kills the session.
base.Response.Cookies.Add(httpCookie);

running your test code does not kill the session on my end.

How are you testing if the session is killed or not.
do you have full code that we can test?

I don't have complete sample code at this time.

I am checking SessionID as well as session variables.

Immediatley after the Add the sesssion is still ok. But then I redirect
to another page and in this new page I see the SessionID is changed and
my variables cleared.

Q: Why does the SessionID changes in every request?
A: This may happen if your application has never stored anything in the
session state. In this case, a new session state (with a new ID) is created
in every request, but is never saved because it contains nothing.
