HTTPS to HTTP

[kashif_shahzad]

hi,

i have a situation where i have to redirect incoming traffic on https to http as the old applications does not support https yet.

i have tried to create 2 VS one http and one https and tried to use en IRULE to redirect traffic to http under https VS. but it fails with " The provided URI scheme 'https' is invalid; expected 'http'. (Parameter 'via') " message.

i have tried it with policy also by forwarding traffic to http VS but still same message.

irule that i tried was as under. tried with redirect also.

when HTTP_REQUEST {
HTTP::respond 301 Location "http://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"

has anybody been in this kind of situation and managed to get things working....?

when HTTP_REQUEST {
       HTTP::redirect http://[getfield [HTTP::host] ":" 1][HTTP::uri]
    }
