Post content issue in F5

Question

Hi All,&nbsp;
I have created one https &amp; one http virtual server with below settings:
1.) SNI Feature over https vs: since i am using SNI feature so all websites are mapped to single https VS.
2.) created pool based redirection on https vs for that i have created the pool based redirection irule which is working as expected.
3.) For http-&gt; https redirection i have created the irule for that.&nbsp;
Now problem arises when customer entered the user information/parameters in html based form and click on invoke the contents of post request are not fully displayed and getting generic output in all cases.Below is the redirection irule i am using , I am getting hits on irule also.In addition to that if I tried to open the website directly from server expected results are we getting.Please help me on this.&nbsp;

Can you post the irule and post url of the form?&nbsp;

Hello,&nbsp;
Although it looks like your iRules and example got cut off I can think of one issue you could be having.  In your configuration if you are doing a 301 or 302 redirect after a POST, the browser will send a GET request to the new location and not a POST.&nbsp;

To address this you could try a 307 redirect to preserve the POST request; however, whether it will work or not depends on the client's browser.&nbsp;

If the redirect is due to switching from http to https I would advise to do the redirect before any forms to POST from are available, otherwise the POST is being sent in clear text (http).&nbsp;

For further trouble shooting, please provide additional information on configuration as well as tests (working and non working).  Be sure to sanitize configuration as necessary.&nbsp;
Thank you, &nbsp;

Have you enabled redirect rewrite to all on your HTTP Profile? (on the HTTPS VS)&nbsp;

Ok, revert the iRule and enable redirect rewrite to all on the HTTP profile on the HTTPS VS.&nbsp;
