Hi Andre',
thanks for the offer, you are right, at this point is off-topic,
anyway I solved (sorry for the OT) all in Apache-httpd:
on the virtual host configuration:
RewriteEngine on
ReWriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/cgi-bin/redirect.pl$1
and the simple redirect.pl in the cgi-bin/ is:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$uri = $ENV{'REQUEST_URI'};
$context = substr $uri, 27;
$url = "https://$ENV{'HTTP_HOST'}$context";
print "Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n";
print "<html>";
print "<head>";
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=$url\" />";
print "</head>";
print "<body>";
print "</body>";
print "</html>";
1;
basically the address:
http://mycompany.com/rest_of_the_url
is redirect from the RewriteRule to:
https://mycompany.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl/rest_of_the_url
and the redirect.pl just retrieve rest_of_the_url string and compose
the new string.
The html returned has:
<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=$url\" />
meta-refresh sends back to Office/Word 200, and this time Office can
open correctly the browser returned in the <meta />
Thanks,
Julio
