[users@httpd] re-write rules

["Foster, Stephen (ASPIRE)" <st...@hmrcaspire.com>]

hi there,

i am having a slight issue with re-write rules, i have it setup so that any requests that are not HTTP get re-sent to HTTPS. However if i connect using https://your.domain.com or https://your.domain.com/ i get a page not found, so i need to be able to catch that its https but that there is no request and to send it to https://your.domain.com/home.

my current rules are:

# =================================================
# Rewrite to HTTPS Settings
# =================================================
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  !=/heartbeat/heartbeat.htm
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  !=/server-status
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT}  !=443
RewriteRule ^/$ https://your.domain.com/home [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}   !^your\.domain\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}   !=""
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  !=/heartbeat/heartbeat.htm
RewriteRule ^/(.*)  http://your.domain.com:%{SERVER_PORT}/$1 [R=301,L]

The first rules handles the fact that i have to serve heartbeat.htm and server-status as port 80 requests but anything else thats not HTTPS goes to HTTPS.
The second rule matches the incoming domain request to re-write to the correct domain, but allows heartbeat.htm to send a 200 status code rather than a 301.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

cheers

Steve
