Selective debug

oj.dupuis

Hello,

I wish to be able to make A10 add debug header informations in the response header when I add a certain header in the request. I dont want all the requests to be in debug mode, just the one I send. I ended up with this code :

when HTTP_REQUEST {
set ::DEBUG 0
# detection debug
if { [HTTP::header exists "X-Debug"] } {
log local0.DEBUG "DEBUG FORCE"
set ::DEBUG 1
}
}

when HTTP_RESPONSE {
if { $::DEBUG == 1 } {
HTTP::header insert "X-Debug-A10" "[LB::server pool] [LB::server name]"
}
}

but this doesn't work because of the scope of the DEBUG variable.
If I add the DEBUG variable to the HTTP_INIT event, it's scope becomes global to the aflex and all the subsequent requests are treated in DEBUG mode.

How could I achieve this ?


Thanks for your help,

Olivier

instead of HTTP_INIT I meant RULE_INIT....

mischa

Try something like the following:
when RULE_INIT { set ::DEBUG 0 } when HTTP_REQUEST { # detection debug if { [HTTP::header exists "X-Debug"] } { log local0.DEBUG "DEBUG FORCE" set ::DEBUG 1 } } when HTTP_RESPONSE { if { $::DEBUG == 1 } { HTTP::header insert "X-Debug-A10" "[LB::server pool] [LB::server name]" set ::DEBUG 0 } }
