Please try below

 

when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] contains "abc.bbc.com" and [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] equals "/"} { HTTP::redirect https://abc.bbc.com/mydirectory/ } }

I think this code will help Ashu, but there is no need to convert uri to lowercase to compare it with / . lowercase and uppercase of / is still / 🙂

 

when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] contains "abc.bbc.com" and [HTTP::uri] equals "/"} { 
        HTTP::redirect /mydirectory/ 
    }
}

@Ashu, don't use the same irule on both virtual servers.

 

  • on HTTP VS, use the default sys_https_redirect
  • on HTTPS VS use this irule

You will have 2 redirect if user requests http://abc.bbc.com/ but transparent for user.
