Fileupload problem
I am new to BigIP. I am load balancing two servers both running java servlet / jsp applications. Some of the 3rd party modules are hosted in iframes and to get the content it uses a non relative url. ...
Hey Willy,
This sound like a fairly tricky issue. Your best bet is probably going to be to try to capture this behavior happening on the wire and inspect the behavior here. This may provide additional insight.
Just to take a wild swing, though, you might want to try rewriting the links in the pages with a stream profile so that the user's browser will request the items/iframes as HTTPS to begin with. The current setup means that if a link is written as HTTP, it will be sent to the browser as such. The browser will then attempt to fetch the resource via HTTP, get a redirect, and try again as HTTPS. This could lead to some timing conditions that cause this sporadic behavior. It may not be the case, but it would probably still be best to try re-writing the content on its way to the client anyway. A stream profile is probably best for this - this thread covers how to do this in fairly good detail: http://devcentral.f5.com/Forums/tabid/1082223/asg/50/showtab/groupforums/aff/5/aft/62191/afv/topic/Default.aspx
I'm not sure if this will correct the file upload issue, but it would certainly rule out one of the possible causes.
Cheers!
