NimbostratusSorry but, when try the redirect it says Error 404 not found, how i can verify if my set cookie instruction is wrong and this is the cause of the error 404 ?
What i should expect on the cookie ? Does the cookie should disappear ?
Thanks in advance ,

Hannes_RappYou are telling the web browser to invalidate the cookies with your HTTP 302 response (originating from F5). If the redirect destination replies back with HTTP 404, it does not matter - the cookies are already invalidated by then. However, for your solution to work, you must verify that the redirect destination does not re-insert the same cookies you've just invalidated. Look "Set-Cookie" headers in the HTTP 404 response. I recommend Chrome DEV tools, or Firefox's Firebug AddOn for the verification purpose.
