favicon troubles keeps resulting in http 302 redirect

Hi,

 

We've problems with a website which always asks for the favicon.ico. When it's not to be found the bigip always sends back a 302 redirect and then the session times out. We tried to control this be creating an irule which looks for a 404 and then do a redirect or a 200 content or something. But we somehow keep getting the time-out because of this favicon.

    Amazing! Thanks a lot! O dear:) The first part "north" works perfectly The second part "south" seems to fail during the pool selection. It never reaches a member, so the browser fails with unavailable message. I already replaced "starts_with" to "contains" so it look like this

    elseif { $RequestedPath contains "/south" } { 
  if { [active_members Pool_x-south] > 0 } {
   pool Pool_x-south
  }
  elseif { [active_members Pool_www.y.nl] > 0 } {
    HTTP::redirect "http://www.y.nl/error/"
  }
 }

    But without succes, why does the second pool go wrong?
