SSL Problems

aegis · #1 (**permalink**) Aug 6th, 2007, 13:39

Hi,

I recently installed an SSL certificate for my website. The problem is that it was issued to http://myurl.com. I now have it set up so that when someone were to access http://myurl.com they will be redirected to https://myurl.com. www.myurl.com and http://www.myurl.com will also redirect to https://myurl.com. The problem is that if one were to access the site by myurl.com , they will not get redirected to the https site. They will be sent to the unsecured http site. I have no way of redirecting this.

My website has a register page, a forgot password, and a client area that all must be secure. I can remedy part of this problem by changing all the links on the site that point to these pages to their https counterparts. The only problem is that there is a login box on every page of the site. I can change the login destination to https, but the actual login page, which is just about every page on the site, won't be secure.

I'm sorry if this is confusing. It's a bit hard to explain. Basically, I need to know how to make the login secure if one were to access the site via a link that does not get redirected to the https site. myurl.com is the only one that won't redirect me to the secure site.

Is there a way of going about this without having to issue another certifcate?

Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If you are using ASP, you can put this before the <head>

Code: Select all

<%
dim servPro 
servPro = Request.ServerVariables("HTTPS")

if servPro = "off" then
    response.redirect  "https://example.com/default.asp"
    response.end
end if

%>

to redirect the user
