Hello everyone I'm just checking I'm going down the right path here.
I've read the example redirect section on the docs here, http://varnish-cache.org/wiki/VCLExampleRedirectInVCL In my case we've just moved web sites, and some crazy dudes are spamming our site, trying to send a POST form to an one page that may have one time allowed it. My Rails app is picking up these attempts at spam and throwing them out, but I want to handle them, and other normal people who simply click on the old link somewhere, with varnish prior to that. Here's my addition to the vcl_recv if (req.http.host == "^(www.)?webiste/blogs/oldpage$") { error 750 "Moved Temporarily"; if (req.request == "POST"){ error 751 "Please go away" } } and vcl_error sub vcl_error { if (obj.status == 750) { set obj.http.Location = "http://newblogs"; set obj.status = 302; deliver; } if (obj.status == 751) { set obj.status = 500; deliver; } } Can anyone see any glaringly obvious stupid bits in there? Thanks again. _______________________________________________ varnish-misc mailing list [email protected] http://lists.varnish-cache.org/mailman/listinfo/varnish-misc
