Redirecting to Mobile Sites occasional failure
The situation:
I need to redirect mobile devices to mobile versions of sites. The catch is not all sites have mobile versions. In the iRule I regex to determine if the client is a mobile device, then to determine if a site has a mobile version I issue a GET that returns the url of the mobile site. Then I either continue on to the site or redirect to the mobile version of the site.
It seems that 2-3% of the time the iRule just silently dies and fails to issue the GET to lookup the mobile site. The rest of the time things work as expected.
Has anyone seen this kind of iRule behavior? Any thoughts on how to solve the issue?
