Configuring session cookies in Weblogic

Question

I'm pretty new to Weblogic and I'm currently trying to convert a web application that I've been running using Tomcat on my local machine to work with Weblogic since our production servers are weblogic. I'm having trouble configuring weblogic.xml so that I can access session attributes. Currently my weblogic.xml looks like this...

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<weblogic-web-app xmlns="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/90" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <session-descriptor>
        <cookie-name>JSESSIONID</cookie-name>
        <cookie-domain>localhost</cookie-domain>
        <cookie-path>/domain</cookie-path>
        <cookie-secure>false</cookie-secure>
        <url-rewriting-enabled>false</url-rewriting-enabled>
    </session-descriptor>
    <jsp-descriptor>
        <precompile>false</precompile>
        <precompile-continue>true</precompile-continue>
        <keepgenerated>false</keepgenerated>
    </jsp-descriptor>
    <context-root>/domain</context-root>
    <library-ref>
        <library-name>springLib</library-name>
    </library-ref>
</weblogic-web-app>

This does not seem to be working when I run locally. Do I need to include the port number in the cookie-domain (i.e. localhost:7001)? This seems to be the only glitch I haven't been able to resolve. If anyone has any ideas please help. Thanks in advance.

Solution

I was able to accomplish what I needed by making the following changes:

<cookie-domain></cookie-domain>
<cookie-path>/</cookie-path>
