 <p>Filed an issue at jboss jira and the issue is fixed in upcoming release.</p> <p>A work-around currently is to have the following in your jboss-web.xml:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt; &lt;jboss-web&gt; &lt;session-config&gt; &lt;cookie-config&gt; &lt;path&gt;/&lt;/path&gt; &lt;/cookie-config&gt; &lt;/session-config&gt; &lt;/jboss-web&gt; &lt;xml&gt; </code></pre>
