How does that output present itself? Redirect header? Payload?

To start, let's test from the command line with cURL:

You may need to either modify the host name to use the IP address of the pool member, or add a local Hosts entry. If the above produces a response, you should see all of it at the command line. From that response, look for where (and if) your required output string exists.
