Hello every body,
i have a question about redirecting the apache server from http to https
dynamically. In fact, i proceed with the modification of the apache2.conf file,
and i force reload the server each time i want to redirect from http to https
or vice versa (sure after commenting/decommenting lines in apache2.conf). I
have my apache server configured with php module. And i am using my server as a
webmail server by adding squirrelmail.
Once i am connected through squirrelmail, and i want to switch from http to
https or vice versa, the switching doesn't take place until i refresh the page,
however, as long as i am navigating through the same "squirrelmail.php" dynamic
page, my server always runs with http. So is their a way to redirect from http
to https (or vice versa) without having each time to ask users to refresh their
pages ???
my apache2.conf holds the lines below:
<VirtualHost *:80>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !^on $ [NC]
RewriteRule .https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
</IfModule>
Alias /squirrelmail /var/www/squirrelmail
<Directory /var/www/squirrelmail>
....
</Directory>
To redirect to https, i comment the code between the IfModule brackets.
the 443 virtual host is unchanged (for an http -> https redirection), and i
have no problem when using https or http alone (without redirection), that's
mean that i have no errors of configuration at this level.
Hint: i have no problem with the redirection itself because when i refresh
the page, the redirection takes place, but what i need is a redirection when
clicking on anything in the dynamic page, not necessarly refreshing the page,
because as you know, anytime we click on a link within the dynamic php page,
new request is generated to the server, so theoretically, it must lead to a
redirection, so why this redirection does not take place only if i refresh the
page ????
thanks for your help;
