Basic cookie session iRule

I need to create a basic iRule that keeps persistence based on JSESSION and load balances accordingly otherwise. I have tried all the standard persistence methods but it always goes back to defaulting...

Here's a simplified version of the rule given in this thread Click here


when HTTP_REQUEST {  
  set jsess [findstr [HTTP::uri] "jsessionid" 11 ";"]  
  if { $jsess != "" } {  
    persist uie $jsess  
  }  
}

This should enable persistence based on the jsessionid in the uri, assuming it matches the format the findstr command in this example is looking for ( jsessionid=x...y; ).
