redirect/return a diff url without client action

thanks for the quick response... I have tried a few other methods including yours before... which basically replace the uri from LB to the server side.

 

 

What I really want to achieve is:

 

eg the sequence of requests looks like this:

 

http://xyz.com/URI_1

 

http://xyz.com/URI_2

 

"

 

"

 

http://xyz.com/URI_X

 

http://xyz.com/index

 

http://xyz.com/URI_1

 

"

 

"

 

http://xyz.com/URI_X

 

http://xyz.com/index

 

"

 

"

 

I want to always capture at the point where index request comes in first before I read

 

the URIs.

 

 

---------------------------------------------------

 

Currently I am trying to do it using this technique:

 

when RULE_INIT {

 

global var so all subsequent sessions can check if index is requested first

 

set ::INDEX_READ "TRUE"

 

log local0. "RULE INIT ==> $::INDEX_READ"

 

}

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if (http::uri is index) and (INDEX_READ is FALSE) {

 

do something URI manipulation

 

set ::INDEX_READ "FALSE"

 

}

 

if (INDEX_READ is FALSE) {

 

if { [HTTP::uri] eq "/URL_1" } {

 

do something other string manipulation

 

HTTP::uri /prefix[HTTP::uri]

 

}

 

}

 

}

 

 

Trying that now and will let you know how it goes...
