BUG: XMLHTTP Fails to Send Cookies from a Client (290899)

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. Create the Windows script to send the cookie:
   1. Create a new text file by using Windows Notepad or another text editor.
   2. Paste the following code into the text file:

      Dim http 
      set http =  WScript.CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
      http.open "GET", "http://localhost/user.asp", false
      http.setRequestHeader "Cookie", "cookietest=testvalue"
      'http.setRequestHeader "Cookie", "cookietest=testvalue"
      http.send
      WScript.Echo http.status
      WScript.Echo http.responseText
      						

   3. Save the text file as Cookie.vbs in a folder of your choice.
2. Create the Active Server Pages (ASP) page to receive and return the cookie:
   1. Create a new text file by using Windows Notepad or another text editor.
   2. Paste the following code into the text file:

      <%
       Response.Write "Cookie: " & CStr(Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_COOKIE"))
      %>
      						

   3. Save the text file as User.asp in the C:\InetPub\WWWRoot folder or another physical path that corresponds to the home folder of your default Web site.
3. At a command prompt, type the following to execute the Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBS) script by using the Windows Scripting Host. Change the location of the file to refer to the folder where you saved the Cookie.vbs file: wscript c:\cookie.vbs
   
   The cookie string that is returned is empty.
4. In the file Cookie.vbs, uncomment the following line:

   'http.setRequestHeader "Cookie", "cookietest=testvalue"
   					

5. Save Cookie.vbs.
6. Again run Cookie.vbs by using the following:

   wscript c:\cookie.vbs

   Note that the cookie is returned successfully.
