Pega 6.1 & Pega 7.1 Compatibility issue
SA-8275
Summary
There exists a few compatibility issues while accessing both PRPC 6.1 and Pega 7.1 on the following scenarios:
>Same session different browser windows
>Separate TABS in one browser session
>Two distinct browser sessions
Steps to Reproduce
- Launch IE browser with version 8 or later.
- Open two tabs, and open a URL of both PRPC 6.1 and Pega 7.1
Root Cause
PRPC used document.execCommand("ClearAuthenticationCache","false");
during logoff and that clears all the cookies and authentication cache for other applications as well.
This code is added to overcome an old IE bug and isn’t needed anymore.
You can override this behavior by customizing the html in the stream @baseclass.Web-Session-Return.
The HTML includes the following javascript:
<script type="text/javascript">
document.execCommand("ClearAuthenticationCache","true");
</script>
Resolution
By Default in @baseclass.Web-Session-Return. the default option its true, you must change that option to false.
<script type="text/javascript">
document.execCommand("ClearAuthenticationCache","false");
</script>
