[users@httpd] Redirect permanent http to https fails

[Jeff Shearer <je...@shearer-family.org>]

The following redirect fails:

Redirect permanent http://192.168.0.200/private https://192.168.0.200/private

I have 2 virtual hosts with exactly the same DocumentRoot:

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.200:80>

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.200:443>

private is a directory under the DocumentRoot.

I can reach https://192.168.0.200/private directly.

Please help.  Thanks.

That may be because you have not read the (excellent) on-line 
documentation, which states :

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_alias.html#redirectpermanent
is exactly equivalenent to "Redirect permanent", which itself

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_alias.html#redirect
states that the URL is a URL *path*, starting with "/".

So, what happens if you just say

Redirect permanent /private https://192.168.0.200/private

?
