This problem has existed for years but I am finally annoyed enough
with it to inveastigate. We continually see this message in our http
files:
webmail_ssl_access.log-20121007:65.95.69.194 - - [06/Oct/2012:16:23:08
-0400] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 302 310
This tells me that:
1. there is a redirect happening; and
2. the redirect enters a loop and never completes.
Our Squirrelmail web site requires https which is accomplished thus:
<Directory /usr/share/squirrelmail>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
</Directory>
The site itself is defined thus:
ServerName webmail.hamilton.harte-lyne.ca
DocumentRoot /usr/share/squirrelmail
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/webmail_ssl_error.log
LogLevel warn
TransferLog /var/log/httpd/webmail_ssl_access.log
Alias /webmail /usr/share/squirrelmail
<Directory /usr/share/squirrelmail>
Order allow,deny
allow from all
Options +Indexes
</Directory>
Our favicon.ico file does indeed reside in /usr/share/squirrelmail:
ll /usr/share/squirrelmail/favicon.ico
-rw-r--r--. 2 root root 800 Mar 27 2012
/usr/share/squirrelmail/favicon.ico
Interestingly if I manually look for the favicon.ico file using this
url I find it:
https://webmail.harte-lyne.ca/webmail/favicion.ico
216.185.71.44 - - [11/Oct/2012:11:26:52 -0400] "GET
/webmail/favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 200 800
But
https://webmail.harte-lyne.ca/webmail/src/login.php give this:
216.185.71.44 - - [11/Oct/2012:11:27:53 -0400] "GET /favicon.ico
HTTP/1.1" 302 310
This is likely an Apache configuration issue but I cannot determine
exactly how one would resolve this. I presume some of you have and I
would appreciate being informed as to what I must do to fix this.
