Hi Jgoetsch,

 

It really depends on your own requirements? If the URI is just "/starter-kit" without any additional deep-links, then "equals" would be fine.

 

If "/starter-kit" has additional deep-links (e.g. /starter-kit/test?abc=1), that must be formated to lowercase too, then you may want to try this code.

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    set low_path [string tolower [HTTP::path]]
    if { $low_path starts_with "/starter-kit" } then {
        HTTP::path $low_path
    } elseif { $low_path contains "solutions/starter-kit" } then {
        HTTP::redirect "https://www.bittitan.com/starter-kit"
    }
}

Remark: Using [string tolower [HTTP::path]] to avoid reformating of potential query (e.g. ?abc=1 ) strings.

 

Cheers, Kai
