Nimbostratusirule to remove url ending
hello, i need to write an irule to redirect user to the same url but without the file at the end. for example if user request http://www.example.com/test.cgi?parm1=test&parm2=test2 or http://www.example.com/bla/bla/test.cgi?parm1=test&parm2=test2
i need to redirect him to: http://www.example.com/?parm1=test&parm2=test or http://www.example.com/bla/bla/?parm1=test&parm2=test2
so just removing the test.cgi and keep the parameters.
thank you:)

Is the part to be removed always the same (in that case "test.cgi")?
minche22_258903yes, i wrote this: when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::path] ends_with "cgi" && [HTTP::host] starts_with "example.com"} { HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/?[HTTP::query]" } } and still wont work

Try with splitting the HTTP Path in sections and removing the last one, see the following irule as an example:
when HTTP_REQUEST { set path_list [split [HTTP::path] "/"] set len [llength $path_list] HTTP::path [join [lreplace $path_list $len-1 $len-1 ""] "/"] }

This, maybe?
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::path] equals "/test.cgi" } {
set queryString [HTTP::query]
HTTP::redirect http://[HTTP::host]/?$queryString
} else {
pool whatever_pool
}
}- minche22_258903i don't see why i need an else statement also, but your solution wont work on the second condition: http://www.example.com/bla/bla/test.cgi it will erase the full path....
- ekaleidoTrue, I overlooked that piece. Change "equals" to "contains" to get through that. The else is just there to handle paths without test.cgi, but I suppose you could get rid of it.
