BIG-IP systems provide a client-side HTTP/2 Gateway protocol implementation in conjunction with HTTP 1.x on a server side. A response can be cached on the BIG-IP system with a web acceleration profile. Sometimes a response served from cache is prematurely marked with END_STREAM flag, causing the client to ignore the rest of the response body.
Some clients' browsers do not retry a resource, causing incorrect rendering of an HTML page.
BIG-IP system has a virtual server for which HTTP/2 and Web Acceleration profiles are configured.
Adding the following iRule causes the body to be displayed: when HTTP_RESPONSE_RELEASE { set con_len [string trim [HTTP::header value Content-Length]] HTTP::header remove Content-Length HTTP::header insert Content-Length "$con_len" }
With provided fix, HTTP/2 end users no longer experience the problem of incorrect page rendering due to this issue.
