redirect http://www.{URI} & http://{URI} to https://{URI}

Hi We have a situation where the published website is needs http to https redirect and in the same time gives an error when accessed using www.{URI}

 

So may you help with the iRule syntax that : redirect both .{URI} & http://{URI} to https://{URI}, ofcourse while keeping the full URI path without change

    Just an update: besides the above needs, it's also needed to redirect .{URI} to https://{URI}

    The question is not entirely clear but if all you want is to redirect to https you might want to have a look at this pre-generated iRule (it comes with all modern versions of TMOS):

     

    /Common/_sys_https_redirect

    I would split it into two rules.

    Apply this to the HTTP VIP:

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    HTTP::respond 302 Location "https://test.com[HTTP::uri]"
}

    Apply this to the HTTPS VIP:

    when HTTP_REQUEST {

    if { [HTTP::host] eq "www.test.com" } {
        HTTP::respond 302 Location "https://test.com[HTTP::uri]"
    }       

}

    That should take care of all the scenarios you mentioned.

    Hi,

     

    Although it's an old question, but it was just tested now!!

    We've applied it but didn't work, noting that our domain is in the format of : subdomain.domain.com.eg , so may the long format of domain causes an issue? any workarounds?
