Hi Winnajeem,

the problem with your iRule is that "(not /) or not (/abc/en)" is alway true and therefor hits the redirect everytime.

To fix the redirect loop, you may try the iRule below...

when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] contains "abc.com"} then { 
        if { ([string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/abc/en") or ([HTTP::uri] equals "/") } then { 
             Do nothing
        } else {
            HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]" 
        }
    } 
}

Cheers, Kai
