HTTPS repond

I have the following irule set up for our websites and it is working fine for HTTP but when the user tries the HTTPS site they just get Internet explorer cannot display the web page

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { not ([string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "")

 

}

 

{

 

drop

 

HTTP::respond 200 content\

 

"Wrong URL entered!You have been redirected to the wrong site." "Content-Type" "text/html"

 

 

How can I set up the rule to give the HTTP responce on HTTPS sites

    why do u need to use drop command? 

    [root@iris:Active] config  b virtual bar list
virtual bar {
   destination 172.28.17.33:https
   ip protocol tcp
   rules myrule
   profiles {
      clientssl {
         clientside
      }
      http {}
      tcp {}
   }
}
[root@iris:Active] config  b rule myrule list
rule myrule {
   when HTTP_REQUEST {
   HTTP::respond 200 content \
   "Wrong URL entered!You have been redirected to the wrong site." "Content-Type" "text/html"
}
}

[root@iris:Active] config  curl -ik https://172.28.17.33
HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Content-Type: text/html
Server: BigIP
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Length: 61

Wrong URL entered!You have been redirected to the wrong site.

    I don't know why I need the drop command. I am new to irules and have only written 2. The rule works for HTTP sites so I kept it as it is. It won't give the reponse for HTTPS sites

    interesting... client still gets response even having drop command in http virtual but it does not in case of https virtual.

     

     

    for your issue, please remove drop command and it would work.

    hi everyone , 
this is example for http redirect with respond 302 custom header :

example 
`text`
when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { [LB::server addr] eq "" }{
    eval [LB::select]
  }
  switch [LB::server addr] {
    "IP1" {
        HTTP::respond 302 Location "[https://a.x.domain.com](https://a.x.domain.com)[HTTP::uri]" \
                        Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
        }
    "IP2" { 
        HTTP::respond 302 Location "[https://b.x.domain.com](https://b.x.domain.com)[HTTP::uri]" \
                        Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" 
        }
    "IP3" { 
        HTTP::respond 302 Location "[https://c.x.domain.com](https://c.x.domain.com)[HTTP::uri]" \
                        Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
        }
    "IP4" { 
        HTTP::respond 302 Location "[https://d.x.domain.com](https://d.x.domain.com)[HTTP::uri]" \
                        Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"

    }
  }
}
