I'm not sure about the race condition. CGI::Session checks each request for a returned cookie. If there isn't one it allocates a unique session id and its own file (if you're using that option). The response contains a cookie with the id.

I'm thinking that you could get a race condition only if the same cookie came in at the same time (with, say, a different query string). I'm not sure how likely that would be and anyway a lot rarer than the OP is experiencing.

I'd be intrested to find out if I'm wrong. I'd have a lot of code to rewrite. :-)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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.
