Hi - I inherited a web server from another site. I requested a wildcard certificate for that server. What I failed to realize, was that a wildcard certificate only covers *.XXX.COM. It won't cover plain XXX.COM. And unfortunately, people mainly connect to the site, using XXX.COM Thus, people who connect to the server using HTTPS://XXX.COM, get a warning message, saying that the certificate is not valid.

So I've been trying to find a configuration that redirects HTTPS://XXX.COM to HTTPS://WWW.XXX.COM. Unfortunately, every configuration that I've tried, doesn't work. All of the rewrite and redirect rules, are applied after the browser checks the certificate against the URL. Thus, the warning web page always appears.

Is there a configuration to do what I want? Or will I have to request a certificate for XXX.COM? (And then configure my SSL.CONF to have 2 virtual hosts, one for WWW.XXX.COM, and one for XXX.COM). Thanks very much. - Mark
