Hi kgaigl,

I think a tcl error occurs. Can you investigate the ltm logs?

cat /var/log/ltm | grep "TCL error"

Redirect:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
	if { [HTTP::has_responded] } { return }
	if { [HTTP::uri] equals "/" } {
		HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host]/some-uri"
		return
	}
}

Maintanance Page:

when HTTP_REQUEST priority 450 {
	if { [HTTP::has_responded] } { return }
	if { [active_members [LB::server pool]] < 1 } {
		switch [HTTP::uri] {
			"/bg-wappen.gif" { HTTP::respond 200 content [ifile get "bg-wappen.gif"] }
			default { HTTP::respond 200 content {
				<!DOCTYPE html>
				...

Combined:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
	if { [HTTP::has_responded] } { return }
	if { [HTTP::uri] equals "/" } {
		HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host]/some-uri"
		return
	}
	elseif { [active_members [LB::server pool]] < 1 } {
		switch [HTTP::uri] {
			"/bg-wappen.gif" { HTTP::respond 200 content [ifile get "bg-wappen.gif"] }
			default { HTTP::respond 200 content {
				<!DOCTYPE html>
				...
