NimbostratusHttp redirect V2 (For newbie)
Hello,
I saw in the forum I can add this sort of rules
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::uri] equals "/" } {

I'm not positive I completely understand the question, but it sounds like you're asking if we can help you send a request to a webserver at an address like "www.domain.com/some_java_app" while making the URL appear to the user as if it's just "www.domain.com".
This would require setting up an HTTP::uri rewrite on the HTTP_REQUEST event, and on the return HTTP_RESPONSE event, so that the request was written one way for the server, and another for the client.
While this is probably possible, it gets rather tricky relatively quickly, because you have to keep in ind that the server will likely need the information in the URI to continue processing data from the client.
