.htaccess redirect http --> https

[2108]

Hi guys,

im trying to redirect protocols from http to https on one of my localhost test sites.

im running my site on: http://localhost

i want the protocol to be changed automatically (i.e. redirect) to https when going on the page cart-conf.php so:

https://localhost/cart-conf.php

whenever i navigate to that page

any solution for this? ive tried google and a new other places but no luck

any help appreciated

thanks

Could do a redirect with your .htaccess file. I'm typing this off the top of my head, but should be pretty close; might need to Google it to be sure though. Edit this to suit your needs.

This is assuming you have the rewrite module running in Apache.

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine on

# Redirect /directory_or_file_name to https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /directory_or_file_name
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}$1 [R,L]


That should pick up any references to a particular file or directory, and if it's connecting with regular HTTP, it'll rewrite the URL to connect via HTTPS instead. Check the Apache manual on the rewrite module for more info.
