Is there a way to have a user going to http://www.xxx.com/ redirected to http://www.xxx.com/subdir?
I am trying to match on a domain in a URL statement in a content rule and then have the client redirected to a subdirectory on the same domain. This doesn't appear to work because the redirect string has the same domain and also matches the URL string in the content rule, creating a loop of sorts.

You should be able to do this as long as you have another L5 content rule with a more specific match with the subdirectory. If you are only using the one content rule, then this will not work and what you are seeing is correct.

Thought your suggestion would work, but it didn't. Here is the before and after code.
service www_elearning_to_https
ip address 172.20.4.138
keepalive type none
type redirect
no prepend-http
redirect-string https://www.elearning.xxx.ca/sapportal/
active
content www_elearning_to_https
vip address 214.114.133.112
add service www_elearning_to_https
protocol tcp
port 80
url "/*"
active
content www_elearning
vip address 214.114.133.112
add service cwh-ott-nt-019-www_elearning
active
The above works, but fails when the following is added. Shouldn't it match on the URL and permit the traffic to flow?
content www_elearning_sapportal
vip address 214.114.133.112
add service cwh-ott-nt-019-www_elearning
protocol tcp
port 443
url "//www.elearning.xxx.ca/sapportal/*"
active
Thanks.

I don't think the CSS can match the URL on 443 traffic since the headers are encrypted. There would probably be a way to make it work with the SSL module installed in the CSS though.

You are absolutely correct. I know better. Write it off as temporary tunnel vision.
Cheers.

Your original question did not say https, it said http, so you are unable to do an L5 match as I stated earlier for https, only http as the other person mentioned also.
