matchclass, code okay, and would you do this differently?

Are you using 10.x?

9.4.8, but you can reference what you would do differenlty in 10x as well..

 when HTTP_REQUEST {
     if { [class match [stringtolower [HTTP::host]] eq myclass] } {
          HTTP::respond 301 Location "https://www.mydomain/secure" 
} else { pool "mysecurepooll_443" }      
    }

I think that should work.

This is what I'd do for v10.

but code looks fine for 9.4.8, correct?

    }

I think that's the only change necessary to make it work for 9.x...see if it compiles. You shouldn't have to set the host variable or see whether it exists...checking whether it matches your datagroup should accomplish that.

hmmm when I was first figuring out findclass hoolio had an example with using set, and I've been using it ever since... do you need it for findclass and not matchclass?

 

 

The code I posted compiled fine but did not work.. I'll give it a try without setting my host..

When doing class searches, you'd typically use "set" if you wanted to set a variable to the value that corresponds with a data group entry. If you're simply checking whether the host exists in the data group, all you need is the "if, eq"

I get the following error trying to compile your code..

 

 

line 2: [undefined procedure: stringtolower] [stringtolower [HTTP::host]]

Since host is lowered by the browser, you can probably ditch the stringtolower for now...will look at syntax in a bit.

hmm not with all browsers... need the stringtolower to work..

 

 

heh needed to look a litle closer... supposed to be string tolower not one word I believe
