>             Project: Felix
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: HTTP Service
>    Affects Versions: http.sslfilter-1.0.6
>            Reporter: Konrad Windszus
>            Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler

>
> Consider the case where application A and B are running under the same domain 
> example.com. A is served by an Apache Felix (below https://example.com/A) and 
> only supports HTTPS (being terminated e.g. by a LoadBalancer in front). B is 
> served by some other application server (below https://example.com/B) and 
> only supports HTTP.
> Now I create a link from A towards B with 
> {{HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect("http://example.com/B/somepath";)}}.
> This URL is automatically converted by the SslFilter to 
> {{https://example.com/B/somepath}} which is clearly not intended.
> I think the sendRedirect(...) implementation of the SSLFilter from FELIX-4420 
> is way too aggressive, because it will also rewrite absolute URIs already 
> containing a scheme.
> Actually absolute URIs should never been rewritten by that filter, only 
> relative ones (starting with a "/").
