Header removal causing TCL error

I've looked at a few threads relating to this but still not found a solution to my problem. I have a number of iRules on a VS, and I am getting connection reset errors. Log message: TCL error:...

Hello Anthony,

This will work for sure, I already had to manage this case...

Replace your "HTTP::Redirect" by 

HTTP::respond 302 Location "[http://www.domain.org"](http://www.domain.org) "Connection" "Close"
event disable
return

1) It is important to replace the redirect because it does not close the connection (by default KeepAlive...). Closing the connection will initiate a new TCP Handshake and for next request your irules event will be executed

2) The "event disable" will only disable the HTTP_REQUEST event

Hope that it will help

Regards
