Double check of rule to get rid of regex.

Pippin,

your original regular expression is little bit weird, so I first need clarification what it was supposed to match:

^/locmap/*/*asp

matches strings that start with "/locmap" followed by zero or more forward slahes (/) and contain "asp" anywhere after the sequence of forward slashes. So, for example:

/locmap////////gasping

matches, but:

/locmap/mapdir/mymap.asp

does not because the regex does not allow any intervening characters between the forward slashes.

I'm assuming (based on your re-factored rule) that you actually wanted:

^/locmap/.*/.*[.]asp

If this is the case, then your suggested rules is correct, assuming that you want to also match URIs like this:

/locmapperwidget/crazymaplocations.asp_and_whatever_here

If you only want to match URIs that start with "/locmap/" and end with name of one of your ASPs, then your rule needs to look like this:

if (http_uri starts_with "/locmap/" and http_uri ends_with one of map_uri)

NOTE: the URI would not match, if it contains any variables "?var=value".
