Nimbostratusredirect for uppercase URI
Hello, I have a issue with a redirect, part of the URI is uppercase /something/somethingelse/NEW/index.html, and I'd like to redirect to lower /something/somethingelse/new/index.html
Now, if I do string tolower [HTTP::uri] ends_with "/new/" it works, but if I try /something/somethingelse/NEW/index.html it wouldn't redirect because the rule matches only /new/
How can I work this around ?
Thank you
If you know which part of the uri is uppercase, you can change the if condition like below :
when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::path] contains "/NEW/"} { HTTP::redirect [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] } }

Hi,
You can use the following irule to redirect to lower case :
when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [string tolower [HTTP::path]] contains "/new/" } { HTTP::redirect [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] } }
demmo_251289It won't work, the page won't load and I get "The page isn't redirecting properly" error. I'm using "ends_with" because nothing else work (except "start_with", but that doesn't help me either)
- Yann_DesmarestYou may hit a loop with my irule. You need to be more specific on the if condition

Hi,
can you try this one, the redirect issue should be fixed :
when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [string tolower [HTTP::path]] contains "/new/" and [URI::query redirect] eq "" } { if { [HTTP::uri] contains "?" } { HTTP::redirect [string tolower [HTTP::uri]]"&redirect=1" } else { HTTP::redirect [string tolower [HTTP::uri]]"?redirect=1" } } } - Yann_Desmarest_
If you know which part of the uri is uppercase, you can change the if condition like below :
when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::path] contains "/NEW/"} { HTTP::redirect [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] } }- demmo_251289That worked, Thank you.
raj_paras_16233Thanks Yann Desmarest. Thats worked for me as well. The option to vote for your answer seems to be disabled for some reason. Anyway, Thanks Heaps!
