.net core 'Response.Cookies.Append' not working as some station

Question

I am using \'Response.Cookies.Append\' for setting the culture as suggested in ASP.NET Core 2.1 docs (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/localization?view

Answer 1

You might have a configured CookiePolicyOption in your Startup.cs in your ConfigureServices-Method.

services.Configure(options =>
  {
      // This lambda determines whether user consent for non-essential cookies is needed for a given request.
      options.CheckConsentNeeded = context => true;
      options.MinimumSameSitePolicy = SameSiteMode.None;
  });

If thats the case, you can set the cookie with the CookieOption.IsEssential = true like so:

var cookieOptions = new Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.CookieOptions()
    {
      Path = "/", HttpOnly = false, IsEssential = true, //<- there
      Expires = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(1), 
    };

Update: If you are using SameSiteMode.None, you also have to set the "Secure" property to true. The cookie will work with https only

Alternativly SameSiteMode.Unspecified does work without https/secure-flag
