caching behaviour for root domains (homepage)

[Caunter, Stefan]

You need in vcl_recv

 

if (req.url ~ "^/$"){

                set req.url = "default.aspx";

}

 

and then handle it the way you want.

Subject: caching behaviour for root domains (homepage)

 

Hi all 

This is my first post and still learning Varnish

in the configs for varnish, we set up the caching rules not to cache
.aspx pages. 

our home page is the root domain  http://v8supercars.com.au
<http://v8supercars.com.au>  

in the varnish trace the request is 'GET /' which makes sense but
without the .aspx extension it's doesn't get fall into the .aspx rule
that we have. 

is there additional rules that we need to add into the configs. 

Kind regards 

Tony
