    Hi,

    remove ;;. try this:

    when HTTP_REQUEST { 

if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] equals "/robots.ext" } { 
    HTTP::redirect "https://www.test.com"
} 

}

    or 

    when HTTP_REQUEST { 

if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/robots." } { 
    HTTP::redirect "https://www.test.com"
} 

}

    It will work for sure.

    Regards,
