Are you accessing the CGI script with HTTPS? If not, -secure => 1 will prevent the browser from sending it.

Also, you can (and should) debug all the steps that the cookie takes. For example with firebug (a firefox extension), you can see the whole HTTP response, including headers. Is the Set-Cookie line like you'd expect it?

If yes, next step: in the browser, list all cookies for your domain. Is it there?

If yes, next step: initiate another HTTP request from the browser, inspect the HTTP request. Is the cookie in there?

If you can answer all of those questions with "yes", you know that you have a problem with reading the cookie. Otherwise it's a problem with setting the cookie (or possibly a step inbetween).

Perl 6 - the future is here, just unevenly distributed

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
