redirect() function clears out any set_cookie

If you set a cookie, then redirect to another page, the cookie does not get set. This used to work in codeigniter 3.

PHP Code:

helper( 'cookie' );
set_cookie( 'my_new_cookie', 'this is some cookie text', 60 * 60 * 24 * 7 );

$redirect = redirect();
$redirect->to( '/cookie_check' );
return $redirect; 


If you set the cookie without the redirect, it works.

PHP Code:

helper( 'cookie' );
set_cookie( 'my_new_cookie', 'this is some cookie text', 60 * 60 * 24 * 7 ); 


Also, if you use the built in php setcookie function, it works as expected

PHP Code:

setcookie( 'my_new_cookie', 'this is some cookie text', time() + 60 * 60 * 24 * 7, '/');

$redirect = redirect();
$redirect->to( '/cookie_check' );
return $redirect;
