Hi,

Am an SSL newbie and am trying to understand various facets of moving a
webapp to ssl. Are there any learnings that the group can share w.r.t
moving a django site to ssl? Any pitfalls or things to be careful about.
Or is it a totally independent activity with no side effects on the
application design and deployment.

I suppose it depends on your site. In my case it was Apache rather than nginx and pretty much all I had to do was establish a redirect so any url with http://blah.blah went to https://... instead.

Check the source for specific mention of the protocol to be sure. If you specify http://blah.blah anywhere you might wish to adjust that but you can also rely on the redirect.

I found it refreshingly clean. Hats off to DRY and Django

Am referring to Philips's guide
<http://www.lognormal.com/blog/2013/06/22/setting-up-ssl-on-nginx/> for
now, but any other recommendations?

Regards,
Venkat
