Thanks Joost for your reply, RedirectPermanent or Redirect Permanent they both do the same thing. But I did not get your point.
And I am still looking for the solution ! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< My original post >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> We have always been doing it the Virtual host way (virtual on port 80 redirects (permanant) to virtual on 443). In my Virtual host for port 80, I have: Redirect permanent / https://www.mysite.com/home/index.htm But this works fine only for the root (/) request, meaning if the request comes for http://www.mysite.com/ Redirects Permanant to Home page over SSL works -----> https://www.mysite.com/home/index.htm But if the request comes directly for using old bookmarks: http://www.mysite.com/home/index.htm It Redirects to -----> https://www.mysite.com/home/index.htmhome/index.htm which results in a 404, page not found (notice home/index.htm appended to the SSL redirect destination) ----------------------------------- What we want is just that all request (to the home page or subsequent pages via old bookmarks) coming in on port 80 ie. over http:// gets replaced with https:// Basically just toggle the protocol from http to https. We do not want to Rewrite any of the links in our HTML response. We just want to be able to Rewrite the URL request. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< End - My original post >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Thanks - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Jignesh "Joost de Heer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 06/16/2005 02:01 PM Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To "Jignesh Badani" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc users@httpd.apache.org Subject Re: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Problem redirecting http to https Jignesh Badani said: > We have a similar problem. > > We have always been doing it the Virtual host way (virtual on port 80 > redirects (permanant) to virtual on 443). In my Virtual host for port 80, > I have: > > Redirect permanent / https://www.mysite.com/home/index.htm This should be RedirectPermanent / https://www.mysite.com/ What RedirectPermanent (or Redirect permanent) basically does is replacing the first argument with the second, even if something comes behind it. So in your rule, /foo/bar is changed to https://www.mysite.com/home/index.htmfoo/bar (replacing the leading / with the replace-pattern).
