Aaron,

 

 

I'm running 10.0.1 HF3 on that device. The actual string that is passed is much longer, but it appears that the "//" is what is causing the issues.

The actual iRule is also much longer, however, the variable is set up at the top and I'm not sure if something else in the iRule could be messing that up. Is "//" some sort of escape sequence and if so, can it be ignored?
