Re: Session Problems due to browserconfig.xml

Hi All,

We noticed a strange behavior where users reported that their session is timing out abruptly. On debugging the issue, we found the following behavior.

When the user keeps working on different sections of the application, the same CAKEPHP session id is being send as a part of the header (we got it through apache logs).

But there is a 404 request to browserconfig.xml. We don't have this file in our root. 

It's a windows-specific file which IE requests http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/dn320426(v=vs.85).aspx

Best action is to simply create it (empty if appropriate) so that the session and any other app logic isn't affected. same for other common 404s such as favicon.ico, apple-touch....png and (only to prevent log noise) robots.txt.

Incidentally: Developing with IE - if that's what user is doing: brave =).
