    I cleaned up an earlier version of the rule you posted in this thread:

     

     

    Click here

     

     

    Can you take a look at that one and test it? I verified the syntax and layout of the rule. I'm not going to reformat this older version again and fix the errors.

     

     

    If you do have questions on the rule I posted in the other thread, please reply in that thread by clicking on the Add Reply button. Here is a copy of the link that you can use to reply to the correct thread...

    the above rule works except for the last part the rule you posted gives me syntx errors if I remove the following the rule works:

     

    elseif { [HTTP::host] equals "www.nature.com" && [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/rss/" && [HTTP::uri] ends_with "/index.html" }

     

    {HTTP::redirect "http://www.nature.com/webfeeds/index.html" } }}}

    Hi Al --

     

     

    Remove one of the closing curly braces and move the one preceding the HTTP::redirect command to the line above:
        } elseif { [HTTP::host] equals "www.nature.com" && [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/rss/" && [HTTP::uri] ends_with "/index.html" }{
      HTTP::redirect "http://www.nature.com/webfeeds/index.html"
     first closing curly brace terminates "if" statement
    }
   second one terminates HTTP_REQUEST event
  }
 third one terminates iRule
}

     

     

    The next time you post, PLEASE post follow-up questions on the same topic on the same thread for continuity rather than beginning a new topic each time. Also, please try to follow Hoolio's suggestions re: formatting your code for readability (will make errors like that above more obvious).
