IRULES to append and Web Server Errors

 

Hello,

 

 

I have found this forum extremely helpful as I learn more about IRules. I have multiple application environments running on pools of webservers. I have to set the F5 to perform URI Filtering, which I have successfully done to a certain point. In addition, because of the way the developers deploy the XML, that when a user types in the URL::URI the first time to login I have to append a string on the end of the request to get to the login page. That to is successful to a point.

 

 

I have two issues that I need resolving and my IRules are not working and not sure how to proceed. Any insight would be wonderful. My IRule is listed below.

 

 

ISSUE 1

 

 

When a user types the URL::URI with a trailing "/" I get standard error "Page not found" from my browser... Example below

 

 

http://test.domain.com/train --> this works fine and get to login Page

 

http://test.domain.com/train/ --> This fails with Page Not found in browser

 

 

I tried adding an "or" statement in my elseif statments but it did not work and actually broke the other pages.

 

 

ISSUE 2

 

 

I have assigned a default pool (user_pool) to the Virtual Server, but I am trying to find the logic similar to the other environments, where a user types:

 

 

http://test.domain.com

 

 

and the F5 appends and the becomes

 

 

http://test.domain.com/user/jsp/common/pgLogin.jsp

 

 

I am not seeing how to do that.

 

 

Any help would be grateful

 

Thanks

 

Greg
