Hi Shafiul,

I've included 

/somecontent/
in my example, because you've asked for this... 😉

Your modified version should include at least an additional exemption for the 

/
(www-root) of your site. Otherwise a redirect loop may occour...

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { ( [HTTP::path] ends_with "/" ) and not ( [HTTP::path] equals "/" ) } then {
        if { [HTTP::query] eq "" } then {
            HTTP::respond 301 "Location" "https://[getfield [HTTP::host] ":" 1][string range [HTTP::path] 0 end-1]"
        } else {
            HTTP::respond 301 "Location" "https://[getfield [HTTP::host] ":" 1][string range [HTTP::path] 0 end-1]?[HTTP::query]"
        }
    } else {
         Request to other base directory or a path without trailing / detected
    }
}

Cheers, Kai
