Redirecting particular page using httpd.conf file

[arunrajiah]

Hi,

I have webpage http://www.example.com/en/signin/

I want to redirect the page to https://www.example.com/en/signin/

I tried the below in httpd.conf file but it doesnt work for me. Can anyone please help me on this?

Thanks in advance.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^signin$ [%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}...]

^signin$

in that context the requested uri will not be exactly that specified pattern.

The requested URL has more characters than is in the pattern so will not match.

[arunrajiah]

Thanks for the details.

So, which pattern should i use? can you please advise

[g1smd]

Requested URL:

en/signin/

Current pattern that doesn't match:

^signin$

Change the pattern to match the requested URL.

[arunrajiah]

RewriteRule ^/signin(.*) [%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}...] [R,L]

Does this work?

[arunrajiah]

Also one more clarification.. i am doing the testing in my development environment.

So after making changes in httpd.conf, i'm accessing the url using IP Address.. [10.0.0.1...]

This could be the problem?

the problem is that your pattern is still not matching the requested url.

your requested url is 'en/signin/' and your pattern says match anything beginning with '/signin' followed by anything or nothing.
