Hi,

I'd first try moving the elseif and else to the same line as the preceding "}": 

  
  when HTTP_REQUEST {  
     if { ([HTTP::uri] contains "a.m") || ([HTTP::uri] contains "b.m")} {  
        pool test-new  
     } elseif { ([HTTP::host] contains "abc.xyz.com") && ([HTTP::cookie] exists "cookieid")} {  
        pool test-new  
     } else {  
        pool test-old  
     }  
  }

If that doesn't work, can you post the new error?

Thanks,

Aaron
