Multiple app login failure

Hi guys,

I’ve been wrestling with this for some time by now.

I have been developing a system from Yii2 advanced setup and had no problems with user authentication until i needed to create a separate back office app for clients. I structured it after backend and named it clientend. The authentication process is shared. There are separate session cookies created for each app: _backendSession and _clientendSession. Now as one logs in the user cookies are created: _backendUser and _clientUser. The problem is that as i try to log in from /backend/web the _backendUser cookie is not created, but _clientUser is done instead, which confuses the system to try to handle it on /clientend/web. When i log in from /clientend/web, system seems to work ok.

I hope someone can help me with this issue, or at least point me to right direction.

Thanks in advance!

The simplest way is to put the backend in a subdomain.

It works for me.

Otherwise, maybe you could get some help from reading this:

github.com

dektrium/yii2-user/blob/master/docs/usage-with-advanced-template.md#use-independent-sessions-in-one-domain

# Yii2-user with Yii2 advanced template

When using advanced template, you may want to have AdminController only available in backend, and all other controllers available in frontend. This guide will help you with implementing this.

## Install

Install module as described in [getting started](getting-started.md) guide, without configuring module as described in step 2.

## Configure application

Let's start with defining module in `@common/config/main.php`:

```php
'modules' => [
    'user' => [
        'class' => 'dektrium\user\Module',
        // you will configure your module inside this file
        // or if need different configuration for frontend and backend you may
        // configure in needed configs
    ],
