Having trouble what what should be a "basic" URI rewrite

This should be simple but I can't figure it out.

 

 

I want any request directly to "https://www.abc.com/" to redirect to "https://www.abc.com/pathto/portalapplication/"

 

 

In several hours of research I came up with this:

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { [HTTP::uri] equals "/" }

 

{HTTP::uri {/pathto/portalapplication/}

 

}

 

}

 

 

Which doesn't seem to work. Can you offer any suggestions?

 

 

TIA,

 

 

Eric
