Worklight Direct Update Fails on Android when using secure session Cookies


Technote (troubleshooting)


Problem(Abstract)

This problem only affects Android clients. Due to a problem in Worklight native code in the Android environment, session information is improperly handled when some native features are invoked (such as direct update), leading to an unusable client application once a direct update is detected. This only occurs when the session cookie is configured to be accessible exclusively from a secured protocol (HTTPS) by the application server.

Resolving the problem

When supporting clients in an Android environment, the application server's configuration option to use secure (HTTPS) session cookies must be disabled.
