Forward ssl requests to non-ssl page using proxy

["YungWei.Chen" <YungWei.Chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

    I am trying to set up a reverse proxy server, which accepts only ssl requests.

    If the proxy server forwards requests to an ssl page, it will work.

    But if the proxy server forwards requests to a non-ssl page, I will get 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable error.

    Does it have to be ssl-to-ssl and http-to-http? If so, why? Thanks.
