[xwiki-users] Regular problem: Login cookie validation hash mismatch! Cookies have been tampered with

Hello, we have a regular problem when we cycle off-on our tomcat instance. Logged in users suddently have blank pages instead of their wiki pages. And we have tons of these errors in the logs. The only solution we have is to ask users to clean their cookies. (A close / reopen browser should be enough for most users). Shouldn't xwiki send new cookies if the old ones have been 'tampered' with? See error log below, Regards, David Delbecq 2008-04-02 09:43:20,630 [http://intrarmi.oma.be:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?language=fr] [http-8081-Processor11] WARN xwiki.MyPersistentLoginManager - Login cookie validation hash mismatch!
