I have spent 8+hours scouring the web, reviewing the Apache Httpd Cookbook, the Definitive Reference, and the 2.2 documentation for mod_headers, mod_proxy and core.
CONFIGURATION: Apache Version: Server version: Apache/2.2.15 (Unix) Server built: Jul 18 2016 15:24:00 SSL offloading happens before the requests gets to Apache, which proxies http traffic to Apache on port 80. The Apache VirtualHost config in question does not have a ServerName or ServerAlias configured, and is configured to listen on port 80. SITUATION I have a Rewrite rule issuing a 301 redirect which uses flags [NC,R=301,L] - which redirects to the correct hostname, but using http as the protocol. I have a mod_headers rule to try to deal with this: Header always edit Location ^http://(.*) https://$1 This rule is getting completely ignored. If I add a wholly new Header like: Header always add SillyHeader SillyHeaderValue the header DOES get added. Does anyone know why the "Header always edit" rule is getting ignored? Thank you, --mjk
