Hello group,
I am working on the mod_ssl configuration on a website and trying to achieve following:
When a user accesses a page posting sensitive data to the server, the page should be accessed in httpS mode. What I am doing to achieve this is that I have a set of rewrite rules that will match the URI and invoke the httpS page. [1]
This seems to be working fine.
The problem I am facing is that when in httpS mode I select a page that is supposed to be accessed in http mode, apache still calls it in httpS mode. I have added some rewrite rules to prevent this [2], but they somehow get ignored.
Example:
Being in httpS://localhost/myapp/user/register
I click on the linked home page logo image and expect to be resent to http://localhost/myapp/ but land instead in httpS://localhost/myapp/
I would appreciate if you can suggest a more elegant solution from your own experience of a fix to my config below.
Many thanks in anticipation.
Beto
