Windows Server https:// redirect
 

I have the code below to redirect to https://www using web.config. Is this correct?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<clear />
<rule name="Redirect to https" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" ignoreCase="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}" redirectType="Permanent" appendQueryString="false" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>

Also, how do I add this to the config? It already has <handlers></handlers>.. I just paste it in there above <system.webServer>
Thanks,
Rich

You have a couple errors.

Set canonical domain for www like this.

Ryan, does it work in vb4.2xx ?
Thanks

there's no reason it shouldn't give it a shot and let me know, there are no settings for it. it is simply a plugin at the init_startup hook redirecting from http to https, if you do not already have https set up prior to installing it will not work.

redirects should ALWAYS be done at the server level!

#1 - I only have access to the forum and forum directory, not the root

#2 - Only the forum needs to be switched to https://

.htaccess or web.config suffices as server-level config, per-directory too.

Thanks, but I know this much already. lol That is what I was trying to figure out. How to do the https:// in the web.config.. I think I got it now anyways but thanks much.

ok. let me know if it doesn't work. i use windows server myself and have it setup somewhere.
