I have an haproxy server set up with a compiled 1.5-dev25 version of
HaProxy. I am needing SSL and since SSL isn't available in 1.4, I compiled
1.5. I have everything working, but I noticed something peculiar and
wasn't sure if this was expected behavior or not. Below is my SSL
haproxy.cfg file along with the wget that I performed against my
websserver. It appears to initially redirect HTTPS to HTTP which then
rewrites the connection back to HTTPS. Again, is this expected behavior or
is something in my config incorrect? Thanks!
