Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] rewrite + ssl
Hi,
I'm trying to rewrite all HTTP calls to HTTPS, except for the default
page. So I wrote in the apache config:
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^/$ - [S=1]
A request like http://server/ will immediately return the "default" page
(aka, the homepage) if and only if there exists a file in the
DocumentRoot directory whose name is declared in a "DirectoryIndex"
directive (or, by default, is "index.html"). If you are using any other
technique to redirect to a homepage, you will skip this rule and trigger
the switch to HTTPS. So check that...
RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [L,R]
it works, except that the SSL certificate is sent anyway,
That sounds contradictory. If "it works" means that the protocol remains
HTTP, then there can be no HTTPS session and no cert is sent. If the
session is HTTPS, why do you say "it works"? Maybe describe exactly what
"it works" means...
Hi Owen,
thank you for your response.
I'm using Mambo to manage the content of my website, and set a dynamic
web page to be the default page on http://myserver.com/
The URL remains http://myserver.com/, however the certificate is sent.
I found why: there are some dynamic links for all images inside the
default web page, so those will be accessed using HTTPS according to the
RewriteRule rules.
thanks again for your help.
georges.
Rgds,
Owen Boyle
