Hello,
One of my clients is having an issue with their shopping cart. When a user logs in, even if it works, they are seemingly logged out as soon as they move to another page. Unless that page is "shoppingcart.aspx" or "login.aspx", it shows them as not-logged in. So if they were to log in, then try and add things to their shopping cart, they'd be logged out again.
They are fine as long as they already have items in their cart and they login from the checkout process, as that keeps them signed in.
Stranger, still, is that this doesn't happen if an admin logs in from the Admin signin.aspx. So if they log in from the admin tool, then browse the site, they are fine. So I'm not entirely sure what's going on.
The site has some customizations, but the login mechanics haven't been changed, and I'm still not sure why some pages would report they are logged in, but then some don't. I checked the cookies and the only weird thing I noticed was the ASPDNSFGUID host is "www.---" where the other related cookies are simply ".---". Not sure if that's an issue, but was just something I noticed.
I just now tested adding a new account, and like the admin page, the login persisted throughout the session. I tried to see if there was something different about how the different login types worked, but I didn't notice anything.

If anyone has had this issue or can set me in the right direction, that would be greatly appreciated. If you have any questions, please let me know.
EDIT: One more thing, this issue isn't happening locally either. When I run the application on my development machine, it's running as it should be. Both versions also use the same database.
Thanks,
Chris
