uri based load balance

Hello

 

 

i'm using this iRule but i have problem.

 

 

The problem is when i request the url "www.domain.com/Touch" (it does not work) but if i add "/" at the end of the word it works (www.domain.com/Touch/)

 

 

i think web server is rewriting the url.The request change after the connect to the server www.domain.com/Touch/abc/index.jsp

 

 

 

i think if i add "/" after the word it will work, how can i do this or any suggestion

 

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

set uri_info [HTTP::uri]

 

if { $uri_info starts_with "/Touch" or $uri_info starts_with "/cis" } {

 

pool pool_9081

 

} elseif { $uri_info starts_with "/Dispatch" } {

 

pool pool_9085

 

} else { HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"

 

}

 

}

    Hi Zafer,

     

     

    The following example code simply examines the URI for a "/" and if it does not it performs a redirect with "/" at the end.

     

     

     
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    if { [string tolower[HTTP::uri]] eq "/touch" } { 
       HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/[HTTP::uri]/" 
    } 
 }

     

     

    I hope this helps

    Hi Zafer,

     

    I think I miss understood. Here is another rework of the code

     

     

     

     

    Here is an example

     

     

     
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    set uri_info [strng tolower [HTTP::uri]] 
    switch -glob $uri_info { 
       "/touch" {  
                HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]/" 
                } 
       "/touch/*" - 
        /cis*" { 
                pool pool_9081 
               } 
       "/Dispatch*" 
               { 
                pool pool_9085 
               } 
    } 
 }

     

     

    I hope this helps

    Hi

     

     

    in this implementation bigip will take webserver role from ibm server, load balance and redirect request to the specific pool

     

     

    my problem ;

     

    if client request type like this www.xx.com/touch (not works)

     

    www.xx.com/touch/ (it works)

     

     

    i worked with irule with these type solutions; append and rewrite url (append "/" and rewrite uri set uri $new_uri/) but i got another problems

     

     

    i use append "/" but irule append "/" in to the all url

     

    regarding rewrite url, "www.xxx.com/touch" rewrited to the "www.xxx.com/touch/" but after the login page bigip removes "/touch/" from url and we got some problems....

     

     

    i changed your irule with my requirements. is that solve my problems, can be loop problem redirection and load balance to the pool

     

     

     

    when HTTP_REQUEST {

     

    set uri_info [string tolower [HTTP::uri]]

     

    switch -glob $uri_info {

     

    "/touch" {

     

    HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]/" -----> add / to the url then

     

    }

     

    "/touch/*" {

     

    pool pool_9081 -------------- load balance the specific pool

     

    }

     

    "/cis" {

     

    HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]/"

     

    }

     

    "/cis/*" {

     

    pool pool_9081

     

    }

     

    "/Dispatch*"

     

    {

     

    pool pool_9085

     

    }

     

    }

     

    }
