force all to https

[Tim Clarke]

I can't work out in the stack of apache/tomcat/lucee how to compulsorily force https use.

I've currently only got this in my apache virtualhost 80 configuration:

Redirect permanent "/" "https://mysite.com/"

but its not working :/

Am I putting this in the right layer of the cake?

Would this approach work better:

            RewriteEngine On
            RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite.com$ [NC]
            RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://mysite.com$1 [L,R=301]

or should I just go and ask in an apache forum. Ah me. To bed.

What’s the virtual host block look like in Apache. That should work:

<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName mysite.com
   ServerAlias *.mysite.com

   Redirect permanent / https://mysite.com/

</VirtualHost>

Is there a conflicting host name or default server that’s overriding?

That's what I have, I think. After some fiddling those two sites demo and main work OK with this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName demomysite.com

  Redirect permanent / https://mysite.com/

  <Location />
    ProxyPass        http://demomysite.com:8888/
    ProxyPassReverse http://demomysite.com:8888/
  </Location>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
  ServerName demo.mysite.com

  Redirect permanent / https://mysite.com/

  (ssl config lines....)
  <Location />
    ProxyPass        https://demomysite.com:8888/
    ProxyPassReverse https://demomysite.com:8888/
  </Location>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost _default_:80>
  ServerName mysite.com

  Redirect permanent / https://mysite.com/

  <Location />
    ProxyPass        http://mysite.com:8888/
    ProxyPassReverse http://mysite.com:8888/
  </Location>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost _default_:443>
  ServerName mysite.com

  Redirect permanent / https://mysite.com/

  (ssl config lines....)
  <Location />
    ProxyPass        https://mysite.com:8888/
    ProxyPassReverse https://mysite.com:8888/
  </Location>
</VirtualHost>

but if I go to the IP address for the server I get the Lucee welcome page now despite those _default_ entries :(

Your last VirtualHost block, the default SSL, is configured to endlessly redirect.  You shouldn't have a RedirectPermanent directive there.

If you're getting the Lucee welcome page after you change that, then there's likely an issue with your Tomcat host config directory for the site (or you have a rewrite rule in place that is unable to resolve.)

Sorry - cut-and-paste fail - that last RedirectPermanent is not there.
