Forcing HTTPS not possible on Bludit?

Hi
I'm trying to force HTTPS on a Bludit site with the edition of the htaccess but only on the Bludit site I get a "redirected you too many times" error.
Even a PHP solution gave the same result.
Is there a solution to force HTTPS on a Bludit site without causing endless redirections?
Thanks!

Hi Edi,
My htaccess is the one generated by Bludit by default.
Code: Select all
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
# Enable rewrite rules
RewriteEngine on
# Deny direct access to .txt files
RewriteRule ^bl-content/(.*)\.txt$ - [R=404,L]
# All URL process by index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php [PT,L]
_________ <- here i've inserted many rules found on the Internet but with no success
</IfModule>
I've tried the rules found here :

and here :

Whatever I try it fails

Yep, that's the first thing I did (in the administration interface) but with no success

I will play around with it. In my hosting I can force to https as option when installing a certificate.

Hi Edi,
From the info I've gathered so far, our host doesn't allow such an option (something to do with load balancer etc.).
Basically, we don't have such a flexibility.
So, what you mean is that there is no solution available via the .htaccess file edition, right?
Thanks again!

Try to add the following to .htaccess:
Code: Select all
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mydomain\.com$
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [QSA,L,R=301]
The .htaccess then will be:
Code: Select all
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
# Enable rewrite rules
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mydomain\.com$
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [QSA,L,R=301]
# Deny direct access to .txt files
RewriteRule ^bl-content/(.*)\.txt$ - [R=404,L]
# All URL process by index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php [PT,L]
</IfModule>

Hi Edi
Thanks a lot for your help.
After some more testing it appears that the problem we are encountering has nothing to do with Bludit and the way it works.
Sorry for having wasted your time.
