Generic iRule to redirect domain.com to www.domain.com

Can you try this instead?

when HTTP_REQUEST {
log local0. "[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]: [HTTP::method] to [HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::host]] {
"www.*" {
HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
log local0. "Redirecting www host to https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
}
{*[a-z]*} {
HTTP::redirect "https://www.[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
log local0. "Redirecting non-www host to www.[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
}
"" {
HTTP::redirect "https://[IP::local_addr][HTTP::uri]"
log local0. "Redirecting null host to [IP::local_addr][HTTP::uri]"
}
default {
HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
log local0. "Redirecting IP address [HTTP::host] to https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
}
}
}

Sample log output for each case:

< HTTP_REQUEST >: 10.1.0.11:54026: GET to www.example.com/test
< HTTP_REQUEST >: Redirecting www host to https://www.example.com/test
< HTTP_REQUEST >: 10.1.0.11:54027: GET to example.com/test
< HTTP_REQUEST >: Redirecting non-www host to www.example.com/test
< HTTP_REQUEST >: 10.1.0.11:54028: GET to /test
< HTTP_REQUEST >: Redirecting null host to 10.1.0.15/test
< HTTP_REQUEST >: 10.1.0.11:54030: GET to 10.1.0.15/test
< HTTP_REQUEST >: Redirecting IP address 10.1.0.15 to https://10.1.0.15/test

Can you try testing with the latest version I just posted? I think one issue with the other versions was they handle requests with no host header properly. The latest version will redirect to the virtual server IP via HTTPS. If this isn't a routable IP for clients you could hard code the correct hostname or IP address. Of course, this would need to be customized per virtual server.

Hi Michael

 

 

Sorry for the wrong info. I tried your code again and it works! Not sure how different Aaron code is but Aaron code does not work.

Hi

 

 

I also check the default _sys_https_redirect iRule

 

 

The code is

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

set host [HTTP::host]

 

HTTP::respond 302 Location "https://$host/"

 

}

 

 

Is it better to use HTTP::respond 302 Location "https://$host/"

 

or HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"

It looks like your client is making requests with no host header. If that's the case, then you couldn't redirect them using https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri] or you'd get an invalid redirect to https:/// like is shown in your logs. Are you sure the last example I posted doesn't work? It tested fine in per the logs I posted.

 

 

Also, HTTP::respond 302 Location and HTTP::redirect result in the same 302 response being sent to the client. So it doesn't make much difference which method you use.
