NimbostratusURI::path returns null without trailing slash (/)
Hi,
I'm trying to workout some redirects based on the first level of the URI path.
set rPath [string tolower [URI::path [HTTP::uri] 1 1]]
when I hit the iRule with "https://something.com/path1/" I get "/path1/". But if I hit it with "https://something.com/path1" I get nothing and my switch statement fails if I try and match "/path1". If I forget the path and just do HTTP::uri it works, but of course I could end up with more than just the first level (right?).
However, in a different iRule which does this:
set NEW_URL [class match -value $rPath equals MYDATAGROUP]
and that seems works. I'm on LTM v14 and I'm a little confused.
I'd appreciate any advise at all.
Hello SteveBy5,
You have a great explanation of how URI::path works.

Anyway, in your case you can use something like this:
[HTTP::uri starts_with "/path1"]
