Hi,
here an rule example :
when RULE_INIT { set external_hostname "externalsite.com" set internal_hostname "internalsite.com" } when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { set default_pool [LB::server pool] } when HTTP_REQUEST { Disable the stream filter for requests STREAM::disable Remove this header to prevent server from compression response HTTP::header remove Accept-Encoding if { ([string tolower [HTTP::path]] eq "/foobar") } { HTTP::host [string map {$external_hostname $internal_hostname} [HTTP::host]] pool internal_pool } else { pool $default_pool } } when HTTP_RESPONSE { Rewrite the Location header for redirects if { [HTTP::header exists Location] }{ HTTP::header replace Location [string map {$external_hostname $internal_hostname} [HTTP::header Location]] } Rewrite the response content using a stream profile if it is text if { [HTTP::header Content-Type] contains "text" } { Set the stream expression with the find/replace strings STREAM::expression "@xyz.company.com@abc.company.com@" Enable the stream filter STREAM::enable } }

Hi,
In the HTTP_REQUEST event, try to replace this :
HTTP::host [string map {$external_hostname $internal_hostname} [HTTP::host]]
by
HTTP::header replace "Host" [string map "$external_hostname $internal_hostname" [HTTP::host]]

In both cases I'm getting TCL error:
err tmm1[32619]: 01220001:3: TCL error: /Common/test_3 - can't read "external_hostname": no such variable while executing "string map "$external_hostname $internal_hostname" [HTTP::host]"
====================
err tmm1[32619]: 01220001:3: TCL error: /Common/test_3 - can't read "external_hostname": no such variable while executing "list $external_hostname $internal_hostname"
I did verify that the variables I set when initiating the iRule do match.
My internal host does have a bit non standard name: foo-bar-baz.qux.mycompany.io can that be creating an issue?
