NimbostratusBasic iRule not working after upgrade
Hello All,
After an upgrade from 4.5.10 to 9.1.1, I cannot for the life of me get this iRule to work. it's pretty basic but for whatever reason, it doesn't want to work. I have a VS listening on port 80 for web traffic coming in. based on the URI it will be directed to 1 of 3 pools I have setup. The HTTP requests will all come into http://webhost.domain.com/____ . At the end of the request (URI) will either be /Jive, /WebNow, or a couple other strings. I need to direct requests containing "jive" to the Jive-Web pool, requests that contain "webnow" to the WebNow pool, and all others to the Weblogic pool. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::uri] matches "/jive" } {
use pool Jive_Web
}
elseif { [HTTP::uri] matches"/webnow" }{
use pool WebNow
}
else {
persist cookie insert wldevpool
use pool Weblogic
}
}
Mike_McCardle_1wrong script in there, I was trying to play with different commands to get it to work. this is the one that was upgraded and I am trying to use:
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::uri] =="/jive" } {
use pool Jive_Web
}
elseif { [HTTP::uri] =="/webnow" }{
use pool WebNow
}
else {
persist cookie insert wldevpool
use pool Weblogic
}
}
thanks.- You mentioned that you want to direct traffic if the URI "contains" that string, which may be the problem. Try using the "contains" or "starts_with" operator instead. You might also want to make the comparison case-insensitive, and a switch statement might be in order as well -- try one of these:
or:when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "/jive" }{ pool Jive_Web } elseif { [string tolower[HTTP::uri]] contains "/webnow" }{ pool WebNow } else { persist cookie insert wldevpool pool Weblogic } }when HTTP_REQUEST { switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] { Adjust wildcards as necessary. "/jive* is equivalent to "starts_with /jive" "*jive* is equivalent to "contains jive" "/jive*" { pool Jive_Web } "/webnow*" { pool WebNow } default { persist cookie insert wldevpool use pool Weblogic } } }

/deb - Mike_McCardle_1Thank you much! I switched it to use the contains and the tolower command and all is well. Thanks for the input!
