Rewrite rule redirection from http to https does not work.

[Ravi Roy <ravi.aroy@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys,

 

My configuration is Apache/2.2.23 on CentOS x86_64, running Subversion server. Recently I installed SSL certificates and I want to redirect all request comming to http://myhostname.domain.com/svn/reponame to be redirected to https://myhostname.domain.com/svn/reponame automatically. This configuration is applicable to whole server, I'm not using VirtualHost in my httpd.conf, I have following rule in my httpd.conf but it does not work.

 

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

 

Call to https://myhostname.domain.com/svn/reponame directly works fine.

I tried several permutation and combinations but it does not work, looks like i'm missing something obivious..

 

Any help on this is appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Ravi.
