How can I automatically redirect HTTP to HTTPS on Apache servers?

I am trying to set up automatic redirection from HTTP to HTTPS:

From manage.mydomain.com --- To ---> https://manage.mydomain.com

I have tried adding the following to my httpd.conf file, but it didn't work:

 RewriteEngine on
    ReWriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
    RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [NC,R,L]

How can I fix it?

Environment: CentOS with Apache

Solution

  • I have actually followed this example and it worked for me :) 

    NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName mysite.example.com
   Redirect permanent / https://mysite.example.com/
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost _default_:443>
   ServerName mysite.example.com
  DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache2/htdocs
  SSLEngine On
 # etc...
</VirtualHost>

    Then do:

    /etc/init.d/httpd restart
