Varnish add more slash in URL - varnish

My varnish cache is accelerator mode and it cause adding more slash after URL.
I check with gtmetrix:
Avoid landing page redirects for the following chain of redirected URLs.
https://www.example2.com/
https://www.example2.com//
https://www.example2.com/
and with google pagespeed test:
Reduce server response time
In our test, your server responded in 1.6 seconds. There are many factors that can slow down your server response time.
Here is my config:
vcl 4.0;
backend default {
.host = "localhost";
.port = "8080";
}
acl purger {
"localhost";
"XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX";
}
sub vcl_recv {
if (client.ip != "127.0.0.1" && req.http.host ~ "XXX.com") {
set req.http.x-redir = "https://www.example.com/" + req.url;
return(synth(850, ""));
}
if (client.ip != "127.0.0.1" && req.http.host ~ "YYY.com") {
set req.http.x-redir = "https://www.example2.com/" + req.url;
return(synth(850, ""));
}
if (req.method == "PURGE") {
if (!client.ip ~ purger) {
return(synth(405, "This IP is not allowed to send PURGE requests."));
}
return (purge);
}
if (req.restarts == 0) {
if (req.http.X-Forwarded-For) {
set req.http.X-Forwarded-For = client.ip;
}
}
if (req.http.Authorization || req.method == "POST") {

}

if (req.http.cookie == "") {

}
}
sub vcl_synth {
if (resp.status == 850) {
set resp.http.Location = req.http.x-redir;
set resp.status = 302;
return (deliver);
}

Somebody know the reason why varnish do that ?

req.url always includes a / at the beginning.
so correct would be:
set req.http.x-redir = "https://www.example2.com" + req.url;
your question does not correspond to the example1/example2 as it includes XXX and YYY
if you can post a less redacted VCL - i may can help you a bit more
you may need a != "/" on req.url before redirecting. as this would result in a //

Varnish Request Url was not the same with apache request

I am sending a request to Varnish but the request was changed so that the output is wrong
original request:
admin/catalog/category/grid/key/d53fe1b4a969a873d1e0b2174848cef5b10797c35dce4c51be04d470db648e8c/id/2/filter//page/2/?ajax=true&isAjax=true
request which was pushed to varnish (varnishlog)
admin/catalog/category/grid/key/b5fbeb78a5bd6bedcb698beac083361a9891a04484bb59541b69e9420fb691aa/id/2/filter/page/3/?ajax=true&isAjax=true
a slightly different between the 2 requests is the filter/ and filter// part.
When coming with an original request: the site takes filter as param and with value ""
But with Request pushed to varnish: it becomes filter as param and with value page, then param page was not found and made the code go wrongs.

How to exclude PHPSSID from responses returned by Varnish

We are currently configure Varnish on our server. This is the mess...
We encounter some difficulties with Varnish. Indeed when we return the response for uncached page, varnish include systematically the PHPSSID of the current user in the response. When another user ask the page wich is cached, he inherites of the PHPSSSID of a foreign user...

1) By default Varnish does not cache any responses which set a cookie:
sub vcl_backend_response {
if (beresp.ttl <= 0s ||
beresp.http.Set-Cookie ||
beresp.http.Surrogate-control ~ "no-store" ||
(!beresp.http.Surrogate-Control &&
beresp.http.Cache-Control ~ "no-cache|no-store|private") ||
beresp.http.Vary == "*") {
/*
* Mark as "Hit-For-Pass" for the next 2 minutes
*/
set beresp.ttl = 120s;
set beresp.uncacheable = true;
}
return (deliver);
}
See https://github.com/varnish/Varnish-Cache/blob/4.1/bin/varnishd/builtin.vcl
In your "sub vcl_backend_response" you always "return (deliver);". This means that the Varnish builtin VCL is never executed. Just remove "return (deliver);" from your own "sub vcl_backend_response" and things should get better.
2) Set-Cookie is a respose header and not a request header so this does not make sense to me
# Do not cache when Set-Cookie contain user[id] OR identity OR PHPSESSID OR PHPSERVERID
if (req.http.Set-Cookie ~ "(user\[id\]|identity|SERVERID)") {
return (pass);
}
3) In general you should not always call "return" in your own versions of "vcl_*" as it will always prevent the builtin VCL (with sensible default behaviour) from being executed. For example you should not call "return (hash);" at the end of "vcl_receive". If you did not do this you would not need stuff like
if (req.method != "GET" && req.method != "HEAD") {
return (pass);
}
if (req.http.Authorization) {
return (pass);
}
in your "vcl_receive" because this would also be handled in the builtin version.
4) Also your "sub vcl_hash" looks very dodgy to me. I would never hash on cookies like you do:
hash_data(req.http.cookie);
By default Varnish does not cache any request which has a Cookie - also see the builtin.vcl
if (req.http.Authorization || req.http.Cookie) {
/* Not cacheable by default */
return (pass);
}
That is why normally you remove any Cookies in your own "vcl_receive" for requests you want Varnish to cache, like you do for static files.
So yes - it is a bit of a mess.

Varnish Cache: Rewrite ESI include url if session is active

I'm looking to rewrite an ESI include url in Varnish.
In my template, I have:
<esi:include src="/esi/user.html" />
which just includes static content i.e. "Welcome Guest".
If they login I add the session into my .vcl.
What I want to do is rewrite the include to:
<esi:include src="/esi/user.active.html" />
where I'll do the db query.
Currently, in my sub vcl_recv I have:
if (req.http.Cookie) {
if (req.url ~ "^/esi/(.*)\.html") {
set req.url = regsub("^/esi/(.*)\.html", "$0", ".active");
}
}
It causes a 503 error on the front-end. How would I update this to rewrite the URL and make it work?
Ok, got this working. Here is my .VCL file if anyone's interested

Varnish cookie issue with mantis bug tracker

I have installed Varnish on my Linux server and configured for my websites including a wordpress site (www.mywordpress.com) and it is working fine. Now I have installed mantis bug tracker under my website (www.mywordpress.com/mantis). But when I am trying to login to the MantisBT as the default user (administrator/root), it shows an error like "Your browser either does not know how to handle cookies, or refuses to handle them". How can I set up a Varnish exception or allow cookies (in default.vcl) for Mantis url's. My default.vcl file looks like:

First, change this, it is unsetting any cookie which not inside wp-login or wp-admin:
if (!(req.url ~ "wp-(login|admin)")) {
unset req.http.cookie;
}
to something like this:
if (!(req.url ~ "wp-(login|admin)") || !(req.url ~ "mantis")) {
unset req.http.cookie;
}
(Where '||' means OR, '~' means equals to about, and 'req.url' - the requested URL)
and in vcl_recv (no matter where, put it in the beggining), ignore caching /mantis URLs:
sub vcl_recv {
...
if (req.url ~ "/mantis")
{
return (pass);
}
...
}
and restart varnish (usually sudo service varnish restart on ubuntu). check again and it should be fine (If its not working, clean your browser's cookies and cache).
...And, why is mantis not inside the wp-admin directory? is it a wordpress plugin?

Varnish frontend server, Litespeed backend server

I wonder if someone could advise what I'm doing wrong.
I have Varnish set up on a frontend server, and this is working. I can put the IP address for several public websites into this (including CNN) into the configuration, and they are cached by Varnish.
When I put one of my site IP address' into Varnish, I get a 404 error back from the Litespeed server - this shows it's connecting to the server, but obviously not picking up the correct site to show Varnish. I have several domains on the Litespeed server, each with it's own IP address. The same happens with the direct URL.
This is I guess a problem with the Litespeed configuration - but any assistance would be appreciated.
For reference, I'm using the VCL configuration file for PageCache, which is a Magento module for Varnish.

## Alternative 2, Configuration with VCL

# one content server selected by the vcl file, based on the request. Use a 1GB
# fixed-size cache file.

-f /etc/varnish/default.vcl \
-S /etc/varnish/secret \

To what port is your Varnish server bound? And what port do you use for Litespeed?
It would be useful if you could post your config files here to give you further advices.
This is what I needed! Configure multiple sites with Varnish
I needed to put the virtual host names into the configuration file. Followed this guide and had it work in moments!
