How to Rewrite the host header

[srajesh.eee]

Hi

Am trying rewrite the host header content using the below Traffic script

The Traffic which is coming on dns name "www.newsales.domain.com/x.x.x...x" needs to rewrite as "www.sales.domain.com/x.x...x"

All the string after / has to be retained.

f( http.getHeader( "Host" ) == "www.newsales.domain.com" ) {

http.setHeader( "Host", "www.sales.domain.com" );

}

But this rule is not getting executed after applying it.

Need the help to rewrite the part of host header to new host header

Regards

The rule which am using is below and it is not working.

if( http.getHeader( "Host" ) == "www.newsales.domain.com" ) {

http.setHeader( "Host", "www.sales.domain.com" );

}

Hi Rajesh,

Can you try this?

$url = http.getPath(); 

if( string.contains( $url, "www.newsales" ) ) { 

   $newurl = string.regexsub( $url, "www.newsales", "www.sales" ); 

   http.setPath( $newurl ); 

} 

Thanks

Hi Arun

I have applied this rule but it still the end user URL content was displaying the initial hit url only and not getting changed to the new url.

Hi Rajesh

Please use this and if it does not work, send me the event log before and after the rule.

$url = http.getPath();

log.info($url);

if( string.contains( $url, "newsales" ) ) {

   $newurl = string.regexsub( $url, "newsales", "sales" );

   http.setPath( $newurl );

log.info($newurl);

}

I changed the regex a bit.

If it works, remove the lines with log.info(

Hi Arun,

Still it is not getting redirected to new url.

Here is the log info

We are getting the hit on Load Balancer on the Initial URL, but it is not getting changed to new url.

Hi Rajesh

Interesting that the log did not have the url.

Can you please try this and send me the log again?

$url = http.getHostHeader();

log.info($url);

Ok Rajesh,

I found the little caveat in your code.

Try this:

$url = http.getHeader( "Host" );

if (string.contains( $url, "newsales" ) ) {

   $newurl = string.regexsub( $url, "newsales", "sales" );

   http.setHeader( "Host", $newurl);

}

Hi Arun

Here is the Script I tried and the output is below

$url = http.getHostHeader();

log.info($url);

if( string.contains( $url, "newsales" ) ) {

   $newurl = string.regexsub( $url, "newsales", "sales" );

   http.( $newurl );

log.info($newurl);

}

[27/May/2014:22:11:40 -0700] "GET sales.domain.com HTTP/1.1" 400 402 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko"

now the url is getting changed as per the log but it is not getting changed in the end user browser..

Good to know it worked. However, I did not see your question on changing the url in the client browser as well.

In any case, here is the complete code for changing the url based on request and on the client.

$url = http.getHeader( "Host" );

if (string.contains( $url, "newsales" ) ) {

   $newurl = string.regexsub( $url, "newsales", "sales" );

   http.changeSite($newurl);

}
