Nov 18, 2010SSL (https) redirection to http.
Hi
Can you please advise me how to redirect https to http.
Below rule is not working
when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::uri] eq https://test.com/ } {
HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
}
}
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

https://test.com/
HTTP::host is test.com
HTTP::uri is /
http or https will be determined by virtual server's service port i.e. :80 or :443.
hope this helps. - hoolio

As Nitass suggests, you could use the HTTPS to HTTP redirect on an HTTPS VS by checking for a Host of test.com and a URI of /:when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::host] eq "test.com" and [HTTP::uri] eq "/" } { HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]" } }
Out of curiosity, why do you want to redirect just https://test.com/ to HTTP?

Just a couple of questions for my own clarification... if I read the iRule written by hoolio correctly, wont this only redirect root level HTTPS requests (eg. https://test.com/)?
Given the and statement, wouldn't the redirect fail if the trailing slash in the URI was omitted? (eg. https://test.com)
Also, if a request for a nested resource was made, wouldn't that also fail to redirect? (eg. https://test.com/checkout.php).
Would removing the conditional and solve this problem?when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::host] eq "test.com" } { HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]" } }
I'm still getting my head around iRules, so these are just questions (not trying to tell anyone how to do things)
