HTTP::payload rechunk -

I'm trying to write an iRule that are doing selective rechunk.

 

 

when HTTP_RESPONSE {

 

STREAM::enable

 

STREAM::expression {@http://@https://@}

 

HTTP::payload rechunk

 

}

 

 

But the followin error message are displayed when I try to save:

 

line 4: [undefined procedure: rechunk] [HTTP::payload rechunk]

 

 

From Wiki:

 

http://devcentral.f5.com/Wiki/default.aspx/iRules.HTTP__payload

 

HTTP::payload rechunk

 

Will cause the payload to be chunked on output.

 

This subcommand was added in v9.4.0, and is only valid if selective response chunking is being used.

 

 

I am using version 9.4.1

 

 

Anyone else have an idea how to do selective rechunk?

    I would expect the command to exist regardless of this, but have you configured Chunking on your HTTP profile to Selective?

    I have created a profile with selective chunking and modified the Virtual server to use this http Profile. The Virtual Server is also using an iRule with only a log statement.

     

     

    when HTTP_RESPONSE {

     

    log local0. "HTTP Response"

     

    HTTP::payload rechunk

     

    }

     

     

    Error message "[undefined procedure: rechunk] [HTTP::payload rechunk]" is still displayed when I add "HTTP::payload rechunk" to the iRule.

    I saw the same error on 9.4.1 for 'HTTP::payload rechunk' and 'unchunk'. I would guess the wiki docs are a bit ahead of the code? Perhaps someone with access to the code could check this out? Else, support could probably help get more info.

    Heh. Well, I've been updating selected portions of the wiki docs based on the code.

     

     

    I've verified that this doesn't work, even though it should; all of the necessary pieces are there, but I guess they're not linked together in exactly the right way. I've created CR85181 to track the issue.

    Thanks for the update and for verifing the "HTTP::payload rechunk" command.
