The redirect is using the same host that the if condition is looking for. Are you trying to match for an empty URI? If so, try something like this:


when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { ([ string length [HTTP::uri] ] <= 1) } {
    if { [HTTP::host] equals "www.pepito.com"} {
      HTTP::redirect "http://www.pepito.com/maintenance/index.html"
    }
  }
}
