Unable To Access The Same Applications Deployed On Different Servers Running On The Same Machine

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • When starting two EAP servers on the same host, using port offset and deploying the same ear/war application on both instances which are not the part of a cluster, browsers are unable to maintain sessions with both Servers.
    • When switching between instances, nothing works in the browser any more (menu, links, buttons).
    • After refreshing the page, the user is redirected to the login page.
    • After entering login credentials, the web app starts working, however, the situation is now reversed.

Environment

  • One host
