Question

Here is my rewrite code:

## File Security
<FilesMatch "\.(htaccess)$">
 Order Allow,Deny
 Deny from all
</FilesMatch>

#### Apache directory listing rules ####
DirectoryIndex index.php index.htm index.html
IndexIgnore *

#### Rewrite rules for SEO functionality ####

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On

#RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.genyx.co.uk/$1 [R,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html?$ index.php?seo_path=$1 [L,QSA]

</IfModule>

But it doesn’t work on SSL pages, for example:

http://www.genyx.co.uk/terms-and-conditions.html

and

https://www.genyx.co.uk/terms-and-conditions.html

Can someone help me make it work?

Answer 1

Edit:

http://www.genyx.co.uk/ -> shows some content

https://www.genyx.co.uk/ -> shows the default Apache site “It works!”

So the SSL server has a different DocumentRoot. If you change this it should work as expected.

By the way, please check your SSL certificates. I would assume that you have to add intermediate certificates or some of your visitors will get warnings that the site is not signed by a trusted instance.

Edit: You can check by yourself if everything is fine with your SSL server or if the certificate chain is incomplete.

Edit 2:

Your certificate provider has a nice description about intermediate certificates. And here is the place to download it. See below how you can install this in relation to the already installed certificate file.

# Apache configuration for specific virtual host ...
# start SSL/TLS
SSLEngine on
# set signed certificate file
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/domain_certificate.crt
# set private key file
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/domain_certifikate.key
# set intermediate certificate / to complete the chain to the root certificate
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/apache2/ssl/chain_certificate.crt
