OK, does the VS have a HTTP Profile assigned? I'm sure it does.

You may want to try Kevin's version with the commands on new lines. Or perhaps you need to exit the rule asap; 


when HTTP_REQUEST {
    switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
        "/dev*" {
            pool dev-pool
             return
        }
        "/qa*" {
            pool qa-pool
             return
        }
        "/uat*" {
            pool uat-pool
             return
        }
        default {
            HTTP::respond 200 content "Please use /dev to go to the dev-webserivces-proxies, /qa to go to the qa-webserivces-proxies, /uat to go to the uat-webserivces-proxies" noserver Content-Type "text/html" Connection Close
        }
    }
}
