HTTP Redirect and cut out URL

when HTTP_REQUEST {

if {[HTTP::uri] starts_with "/mvpvote"} {

pool Pool_Test.com:8080

}

}

So i would create a new pool that has the same servers but the port is 8080. I would redirect the requests to that pool. Also since i did not modify the full uri, you would need to change the path to content. (You would need to put it below mvpnote folder)

Try something like below one..

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if {[string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/mvpvote"}{
        set newuri [string map -nocase {"/mvpvote" ""}[HTTP::uri]]
        HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::Host]:8080$newuri"
        }
    }

Jinshu irule will work great but if you want the user to see the new url and add a redirect code then you might have to add a few things to it.

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if {[string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/mvpvote"}{
        set newuri [string map -nocase {"/mvpvote" ""}[HTTP::uri]]
        HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::Host]$newuri"
        }
    }

There are two drawbacks with the use of

string map

HTTP::uri

The following solution should be more correct, and as a bonus, better performing (though not tested!):

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    switch -glob [HTTP::path] {
        "/mvpvote" {
            HTTP::respond 301 Location "http://[HTTP::host]/[HTTP::query]"
        }
        
        "/mvpvote/*" {
            HTTP::respond 301 Location "http://[HTTP::host][substr [HTTP::uri] 8]"
        }
    }
}
