IRule Maintenance Notification

Hi,

 

 

I have an IRule for maintenance notification in English and French. When I try to update the maintenance time in the IRule, it replace all the Frech vowels with "?" mark.

 

 

for example

 

 

n'est pas will show as n?est pas

 

 

The Irule that is in the LTM shows fine but once I update and try to save it, it shows ? marks on French vowels.

 

 

Any suggestions.

 

 

Thanks

  • you are running 11.x, aren't you? can you try b64encode/decode?

  • i do not have 9.4.x for testing. anyway, i am able to reproduce your issue in 11.x unit and b64encode/decode works fine here.
  • Let me work on upgrading the LTM 1500's to the 11.x version.

     

    Thank you for your help
  • i think b64encode/decode should work in 9.4.x as well. can you try on 9.4.x?
  • Hi Nitass,

     

     

    Do you have any document that explainsm how to do the B64encode?

     

    I went through few examples but unable to find answers.

     

     

    Thank you for your help
  • do you mean how to generate b64 encoding? if so, i just used google.

     

     

    e.g.

     

     

    Base64 Online
