Redirect from non WWW to WWW host name

Hi Edgar,

Here's an example you can use:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
if {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] ne "www.mysite.com"} {
HTTP::redirect "http:://www.mysite.com[HTTP::uri]"
}
}

Thanks hoolio!

 

 

Is that the correct word: 'ne'? What does it mean?

 

 

Thanks again. I will be able to try this code a little later today and let you know if it works as expected.

Hi Edgar,

 

 

The "ne" is "not equal". You can also use an "!".

 

 

It can be expressed several different ways:

 

if {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] ne "www.mysite.com"} {

 

or

 

if {!([string tolower [HTTP::host]] ne "www.mysite.com")} {

 

or

 

if {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] != "www.mysite.com"} {

 

 

Hope this helps.

Thanks, hoolio and Michael! The iRule works as expected.

Actually, I overlooked the fact that we connect to www.mysite.com internally. Can I add an exception to the iRule so requests to www.mysite.mydomain.com go through?

 

 

Thank you for your time.
