NimbostratusiRule Error when try to disable ACCESS in HTTP_REQUEST_DATA event
Can we disable APM profile in HTTP_REQUEST_DATA event?
when HTTP_REQUEST_DATA {
Parse XML Data
set xmluserdata [findstr [HTTP::payload] "" 10 ""]
set xmlpw [findstr $xmluserdata "" 10 end]
if {!([info exists "xmlpw"])} {}
unset xmlpwtmp
}
When I try ACCESS:: disable as follows: if {!([info exists "xmlpw"])} { ACCESS::disable} [command is not valid in current event context (HTTP_REQUEST_DATA)][ACCESS::disable]
I don't want to initiate APM module if password is empty.

You can't use ACCESS::disable in HTTP_REQUEST_DATA, it is not valid there.
It is only valid on HTTP_REQUEST

Perhaps you want to respond to the offending request with an error code and close the connection? Then you can use HTTP::respond which is valid in HTTP_REQUEST_DATA
