ACE HTTP Probe with regex
Hi,
I'm trying to setup a HTTP probe with expected string rather then a code (config below). I do a GET for the page then a search for a string in the response however it's not working, as probe appears as failed.
I've tested the connection to the server by using telneting and then looking at the page displayed to make sure the string I want to match is in the response.
probe http HTTP-PROBE
port 43050
interval 30
passdetect interval 30
passdetect count 1
request method get url /action=help
open 43050
expect regex action=help
Q. Is there anything wrong with this configuration and what I'm trying to achive?
Thanks,
Pritesh

Use "expect status" under probe config. expect regex doesnt work if expect status is not configured.
expect regex work flawlessly with static pages. It doesnt work all the time with dynamic pages.
Specially if "content-length" header is missing from Server response.
Hope it helps
