Issue with replacing Set Cookie path within iRule

You could try something like this to iterate through the cookies present.

when HTTP_RESPONSE {
    set cookies [HTTP::cookie names]
    foreach cookie $cookies {
        set cookie_value [HTTP::cookie $cookie]
        set cookie_path [string map -nocase {"/OLD" "/NEW"} [HTTP::cookie path $cookie]]
        HTTP::cookie remove $cookie
        HTTP::cookie insert name $cookie value $cookie_value path $cookie_path
    }
}

I was also wondering whether you'd need a Oneconnect profile too on the virtual server... This will make the connection http request based, rather than TCP session based. Just a thought.

Thanks for the responses. Unfortunatly, both suggestions didnt seem to work. Still only replacing the first one not the ones after. Even when looping through all cookies.

As far as I can see Brad suggestion should work, assuming the cookie you need to alter is inserted in the response by a device before the LTM receives it. Try adding in debug statement before you loop;-

if {$debug} {log local0. "[HTTP:cookie names],[HTTP::values]

Left out a terminating "

Still no luck. Is there a way to loop through all of the HTTP::header Set-Cookie within a response? Convert to a variable, alter the path=/, remove that specific HTTP::header Set-Cookie and insert the 'new one'. Iv attempted this using different methods but im having no luck.

Similar to what i did in my original post but for all of them. Looping through the actual cookies as suggested is causing other issues. Thanks

So 'HTTP::header replace' only acts on the last instance of the specified header. So if, for instance you are trying to replace a header inserted by the server, but the LTM has inserted its own cookie (due to cookie persistence profile) on the same response, you'll actually over-write the F5 cookie.

Why is cookie enumeration causing problems?
