rewrite or url transform
« on: January 06, 2012, 07:10:59 AM »
folks

i want to try a simple url transfrom

i want users who access www.myexternalurl.com to be be directed to http://myinternalurl:8080 and the content then to be returned as www.myexternalurl.com

i've set up a url transform

add transform profile transform-profile
add transform action transform-action transform-profile 1
set transform action transform-action -priority 1 -reqUrlFrom "http://www.myexternalurl.com/(.*)" -reqUrlInto "http://myinternalurl:8080$1" -resUrlFrom "http://myinternalurl:8080" -resUrlInto "http://www.myexternalurl.com/"
add transform policy transform-policy TRUE transform-profile
bind transform global transform-policy 1

i can get to the home page ok but if i add a page of the site, i.e. www.myexternalurl.com/admin or www.myexternalurl.com/webportal nothing is returned

any ideas folks?

thanks to anyone taking the time to view or reply to this

at the service you can add the server, and specify that the http daemon is running on port 8080

Then, add a rewrite rule, that has the action to replace the hostname,

Its pretty simple.

many thanks for your reply

i have the vserver, service and server already configured but its still not working properly

are you suggesting a rewrite rather than a url transform rule?

Yes

Exactly. Rewrites over URLtransformation. Also in netscaler world the hostname is not part of the URL, so i dont even know if URLtransformation can do what you want.

I will try and come with some configuration examples monday, i dont have access to a netscaler at home.

i think i have resolved the issue though i'm still waiting on the developers to verfiy with more detailed testing than i have been able to carry out as yet

i modified my transform and so far its looking good

i'll post an update when i get feedback from the developers

thanks again

revised config:

add transform profile transform-profile
add transform action transform-action transform-profile 1
set transform action transform-action -priority 1 -reqUrlFrom "http://www.myexternalurl.com/" -reqUrlInto "http://myinternalurl:8080" -resUrlFrom "http://myinternalurl:8080" -resUrlInto "http://www.myexternalurl.com/"
add transform policy transform-policy TRUE transform-profile
bind transform global transform-policy 1

add rewrite action RA_example replace "HTTP.REQ.HOSTNAME.REGEX_SELECT(re/.*/)" "\"myinternalurl\""
add rewrite policy RP_example "HTTP.REQ.HOSTNAME.EQ(\"www.myexternalurl.com\")" RA_example


and the bind the policy where you want it.
