SSL Offloading From F5 to Apache-Weblogic server

Hi!

 

I'm trying to configure SSL Offload between my Big-IP and an Apache-Weblogic. All in http works fine, but when i use https and SSL Offload and i browse the web page, after I enter user and password, the F5 returns me to the login page.

 

I follow some Deployment Guides provided by F5 knowledge base and nothing.

 

I´m working whit a iRule for the Http to https redirect: ------------

 

when HTTP_REQUEST { HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"

 

}

Someone can help me ?

  • Maybe a persistence issue? Try enabling cookie based, or source ip based, persistence of the https virtual server....

     

  • More likely your web server is returning absolute links using http:// rather than http://. If not that it's at least doing so with the post login redirect. In the first instance I'd suggest you modify the HTTP Profile and enable Redirect Rewrite. If that doesn't help post back and I'll provide details on using a stream profile to rewrite responses.

    As WLB mentions above. Try a Stream Profile.

     

    Create a custom profile, select Target and enter in @http:@https:@

     

    This should do it.

     

    If not then best bet is to use httpwatch, fiddler etc. to see what's going on in the http request/response.

     

    Hope this helps
