Are you acessing your server using an ip-address (e.g. 192.168.1.1) or
as localhost (127.0.0.1)? I'm not sure your %{localhost} is expanding
correctly.
Try using IP-based virtualhosts (which is what you nearly had...) e.g.
Listen 80
<VirtualHost ip-addr:80>
DocumentRoot /bla/bla/htdocs
etc..
</VirtualHost>
Listen 443
<VirtualHost ip-addr:443>
DocumentRoot /bla/bla/htdocs/CIP
etc..
</VirtualHost>
- Don't use NameVirtualHost since name-based virtual-hosting doesn't
work with SSL.
- I'm not sure your SSL rewrite rule is correct...
RewriteRule ^/(.*):SSL https://%{localhost}/CIP$1 [R,L]
will turn:
http://server/banana:SSL
into:
https://server/CIP/banana
which will expand to the path:
/bla/bla/htdocs/CIP/CIP/banana
(since the doc-root is /bla/bla/htdocs/CIP/)
Which I don't think is what you want.
