Apache: 2.2.0 I need to a) require SSL on requests to /secure (i.e., http://server/secure -> https://server/secure) b) and as the second step, offload (proxy) https://server/secure to http://server:8080/secure I thought I could accomplish (a) using mod_rewrite and (b) using Proxy pass as follows: RewriteEngine On RewriteLog "/tmp/http.log" RewriteLogLevel 9 RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT}!443$ RewriteRule ^/secure(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}:443/secure$1 [R=301,L] <Proxy balancer://clusterx> BalancerMember http://localhost:8080/ </Proxy> ProxyPass /secure balancer://clusterx/ However, this does not work. A request http://server/secure is directly forwarded to http://server:8080/secure Is there anyway to force Rewrite before proxy pass? Pl help..
