Using .htaccess to force rewriting URLs to https:// works but loses any subdirectory paths. What do I need to change?

[Bob Linkonij <boblnknj0@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everybody,

I'm hosting my website at a shared-host so I have control limited to
using .htaccess.

I just got an SSL certificate set up and want to make sure that
everything at my site always uses the https://Domain.com address and
the certificate.

Reading around alot, I made some progress by putting this in the
/webroot/.htaccess file:

	Options +FollowSymLinks
	
	SSLOptions +StrictRequire
	SSLRequireSSL
	SSLRequire %{HTTP_HOST} eq "www.Domain.com"
	ErrorDocument 403 https://www.Domain.com
	
	RewriteEngine      on
	RewriteBase        /
	
	RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
	RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
	

With this in there if I go to any of these URLs,

	http://Domain.com
	http://www.Domain.com
	https://Domain.com
	https://www.Domain.com

I end up at https://www.Domain.com like I'd hoped.

But when I go to any subdirectory

	http://Domain.com/something
	http://www.Domain.com/something
	https://Domain.com/something
	https://www.Domain.com/something

I STILL end up at just https://www.Domain.com, instead of preserving
the subdirectory path. In other words ending up at:

	https://www.Domain.com/something

What do I need to change or add to get the subdirectory paths to
"stick" after changing to the https:// ?
