http to https redirect

[mustu]

Hi,

I did tried all the methods of http to https redirect but it didn't worked for my OTRS. in the SysConfig>>Core the http type is set to HTTPS and it;s workign perfectly on https. What I need is to force redirection of http://mycomany.com/otrs/index.pl to https://mycomany.com/otrs/index.pl.

I tried putting the rewrite condition in an .htaccess in /opt/otrs/var/httpd/htdocs/ but no effect. I also tried to put the rewrite condition in http.conf but also no effect. any clue?

I've followed the following articles but didn't worked.

I'm using the Apache rewrite module to solve this
- make sure rewirte module is loaded in apache
- place your .htaccess in the DocumentRoot of your apache

here is my .htaccess, using url /admin for Agentlogin, /customer for customerlogin

Code: Select all

order deny,allow
Allow from all
Options +FollowSymlinks
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
        RewriteEngine on
        # Hostname only -> Customer Login
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/$
        RewriteRule ^.*$ https://<your_host_name>/otrs/customer.pl [R]
        # Customer Login
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/customer/?$
        RewriteRule ^.*$ https://<your_host_name>/otrs/customer.pl [R]
        # Agent Login
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/admin/?$
        RewriteRule ^.*$ https://<your_host_name>/otrs/index.pl [R]
</IfModule>

Does putting it in apache2-httpd.include.conf change anything?

[Wolfgangf]

depends on your apache config
in my case, mod_rewrite is loaded in http.conf and I have a separae .htaccess file in the http servers document root
you could enable rewirte logging to see what going on by putting a file like rewrite.conf into apache/conf.d/

Code: Select all

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteLog /<apache_log_path>/mod_rewrite_log
    RewriteLogLevel 3
</IfModule>
