switch not recognizing content type

There should not be "}" after "image/jpeg".

when HTTP_RESPONSE {
   if { [HTTP::header exists Content-Type] } { 
      switch -glob [HTTP::header Content-Type] { 
         "text/javascript" - 
         "text/css"-  
         "image/gif" -  
         "image/jpeg"  { 
            HTTP::header replace "Cache-Control" "private, max-age=604800"  
         } 
      } 
   }
}

Thanks. That worked!

Keep in mind that these comparisons are case sensitive. It might make sense to include a string tolower along with the switch comparison statement, depending on what piece of data you're switching on and whether or not it can be multi case.

Yes, the iRule should work the same in terms of rewriting the headers for HTTPS. Can you check the actual HTTP headers in the responses to see if the cache control header is being set as you expect?

 

 

Aaron

It ONLY shows in the HTTP images and NOT HTTPS images.

 

 

Here is the code in the SSL VS:

 

 

 

when HTTP_RESPONSE {

 

if request is a static file, set cache control to be cached on the client machine for 7 days

 

if { [HTTP::header exists Content-Type] } {

 

switch -glob [HTTP::header Content-Type] {

 

"text/javascript" -

 

"text/css" -

 

"image/gif" -

 

"image/png" -

 

"image/jpg" -

 

"image/jpeg" {

 

HTTP::header replace "Cache-Control" "private, max-age=604800"

 

}

 

}

 

}

 

}

 

 

 

 

Thoughts?

Can you try this:

 

 

curl -kv https://1.1.1.1/static_content.file

 

 

where 1.1.1.1 is the virtual server IP and /static_content.file is the name of a static file?

 

 

Aaron

Do you want me to try this in the browser?

Sorry, no from the LTM command line.

 

 

Aaron

I've never used SSH to connect the LTM yet. I"ll have to learn that. Are there any quick tutorials on that?

 

 

Also, this is weird that the IRules for HTTPS set cache control response headers on our PRODUCTION site but just NOT our DEVELOPMENT site.

 

 

Any reason why would that be? It's go the same IRules and very similar VS/POOL/Members setup.

 

 

Thoughts?

You can use Putty to connect to the LTM command line:

 

 

http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html -> http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/putty.exe

 

 

Can you try testing from the command line using curl and compare what you see in production with development?
