http to https redirection

Hello,

I'm currently trying to redirect the url http://mail.server.com to https://mail.server.com

I've tried all the options in ISPCONFIG (no flag, R, L, RL) and none off them actually work, Firefox / IE / Opera, there is no browser that accepts the rewrite rule.

The code produced by ispconfig is the next one :

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mail.server.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ https://mail.server.com/$1 [R,L]


What I want to do, is to replace the ISPconfig code with something that works like :

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R]


Problem is, each time I'll perform a change on the site, my code will be erased by the standard ispconfig code.

How can I change this ? I suppose I have to change some master code of ISPconfig, but I don't really like that idea, because it always causes trouble when updating to a new version.

Can a fix be expected in a future version of ISPconfig maybe ?

 

That works perfectly well, I forgot that option !

Thanks a lot till

 

Does this work for all or must I chance something in those lines?
I want to use https://webmail.mydomain.com all the time somebody uses web-mail.

 

Yes that works, and also:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

 

Witch one is the preferred way to do it?

 

Feature Request: ModRewrite Is Not Optimal For This

Is there any chance that the option to make a whole site SSL only can be added to ISPConfig 3 in a future release?

Having this written into the vhost file is not only the "proper" way to do it but also would be a performance gain:

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName www.example.com
   Redirect permanent / https://example.com
</VirtualHost>

 

That works too.

I wasn't suggesting that anyone modify the vhost directly I'm just making a feature request for a site option that basically says "Hey ISPConfig, I want this entire site to be SSL only".

Having that option would allow ISPConfig to then automatically write that very simple *:80 vhost entry, which not only handles the SSL only part, but also eliminates a full fledged *:80 vhost entry that never gets used but still has to get loaded into memory. This would also eliminate any need for adding any redirects by the user.

Not a crucial feature request or anything, but it would be nice.

 

Up, that's a really good request. Any news?

 

This don't work.

I get redirected to SSL /php5-fcgi/index.php

PHP is handled through FPM.

 

This worked perfectly Thanks Till

 

This one is the correct one

On the above post i made notice the code is different and would only work if you typed in http://yourdomain.com which would bring your to https://yourdomain.com. However if someone were to type yourdomain.com into the address bar you would still get the regular unecrypted website

 

Using the code above - still doesn't work if I directly type www.domain.com into the address bar..
works great for domain.com but not www.domain.com...
checking what I'd have to edit to get the www - working - or I'm doing it wrong - which is also extremely possible!

went back and used Mod's example below and it worked perfectly - tried couple days ago but didn't - again was me!

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

 

Hello,
I have followed all the tips and procedures provided in this forum for http to https redirect. But have not been able to resolve the issue of my site not opening without https. Please suggest.

 

Better to use redirect than rewrite:
https://wiki.apache.org/httpd/RedirectSSL

Code:

<If "%{HTTPS} == 'off'">
Redirect permanent / https://domain.tld/
</If>

And you could also add HSTS:

Code:

<If "%{HTTPS} == 'on'">
Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains"
</If>

 

Hi , I'm using latest ISPconfig 3.1.3 and got Lets Encrypt to work on the server and if I go to https://www.exsample.com I get the https with padlock and all. I tick in the redirect to https box in web sites redirect tab, it works for some sites not all, I've tried all above methods on those webs that do not redirect reliably with out any luck.
I'm running out of ideas what to try and would appriciate suggestions.

 

Hi yes it seems that these sites have generated .vhost.err files her is the redirect part from site fuglar.is out of the .err file:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/\.well-known/acme-challenge/
RewriteRule ^ - [END]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^fuglar\.is$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.fuglar.is$1 [R=301,NE,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^wp\.fuglar\.is$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.wp.fuglar.is$1 [R=301,NE,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^wp\.fuglar\.is$ [NC]

RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://www.fuglar.is [R]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.wp\.fuglar\.is$ [NC]

RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://www.fuglar.is [R]

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

I'm just thinkig if it has to do with the seo redirect fuglar.is -> www.fuglar.is ?
site works fine as https just will not redirect to it.
let me just admit that I'm not the best in regexp and re-directions so I tend to use fancy stuff like ISPconfig and/or online redirect generators to do stuff I really do not know sufficiently.
