irule causing loop.

The sections where you are checking for the host names and then redirecting to the same hostname will almost certainly cause a recursive loop.

elseif {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] contains "join" } { 
   HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/join.jsp"} 
 elseif {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] contains "MysteryBookOffer" } { 
   HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/nm/link/home?YSID=1129&YTYP=net&YTID=BN4_02_k8_E66"} 
 elseif {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] contains "historybookclub" } { 
   HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]ecom/nm/link/home?YSID=1128&YTYP=net&YTID=BN3_02_h7_E65"} 
 elseif {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] starts_with "www" or "www1"} { 
   HTTP::c"http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

It's bad practice to redirect to the same hostname that will cause a subsequent redirect. You will need to limit your comparisons down and/or add some exclusions to your logic so that the redirects you submitted will not trigger further redirects.

Thanks Joe

 

 

I resolved it by using exact expression along with http:uri"/"

 

 

However below doesnt seems to be working.

 

 

when LB_FAILED {

 

if{[active_members [LB::server]]<1}

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/error/404.html"}

 

[LB::server] returns a list. You most likely want [LB::server pool].

Hi Jason,

 

 

[LB::server pool] doesnt seems to be working.

When you say it's not working, do you mean it's returning nothing, or that it's not returning what you want?

 

 

Colin

Hi Colin ,

 

Its not working is it not redirectig

 

http://[HTTP::host]/error/404.html location .If I do an http watch (Its giving Internet_connection_problem) .

 

 

Thanks

 

Shivesh

Try getting rid of the redirect and just re-writing the URI instead.

 

 

HTTP::uri /error/404.html

 

 

It's late in the session to be issuing a redirect to the client. They're likely expecting a server response at this point.

 

 

Colin

Hi Friends,

 

 

I tried all possible switches.It doesnt seems to be working .Kindly help me here if I am missing anything.Observation when disabled the nodes in pool still redirection was happening.However as I had got down possibly I am missing some small thing in here.

 

 

when LB_FAILED {

 

if{[active_members [LB::server pool ]] < 1 }

 

HTTP::redirect "http://www.google.com"}

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if {([HTTP::path] ends_with "/doc")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

 

elseif {([HTTP::path] ends_with "/minisite")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

 

elseif {([HTTP::path] ends_with "/fslink")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

 

elseif {([HTTP::path] ends_with "/ms")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

 

elseif {([HTTP::path] ends_with "/link")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

 

elseif {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals ("www.abcd.com") and ([HTTP::uri] equals "/")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

 

elseif {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals ("www1.abcd.com") and ([HTTP::uri] equals "/")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp"}

 

elseif {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals ("www.joinabcd.com") and ([HTTP::uri] equals "/")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/join.jsp"}

 

elseif {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals ("www1.joinabcd.com") and ([HTTP::uri] equals "/")} {

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/ecom/pages/nm/join.jsp"}}

 

You wouldn't have a fallback host configured on this virtual server's HTTP profile, would you? If so, that could be complicating matters.

Hi Matt,

 

 

Nope I dont have a fallback host configured on Http profile.

 

 

Thanks & Regards,
