Question

How to redirect from http to https?

Posted June 18, 2019 8.3k views
ApacheUbuntu 18.04

Hi, I install my wordpress site on an ubuntu 18.04 droplet and after posting a few articles I proceed to install lestencrypt.

My https site works fine, my problem is when trying to enter with http it does not redirect.

This is the .httacces file from my site:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

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

And my 80 VirtualHost at /etc/apache2/sites-available (instead of example is my domain):

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com
    ServerName example.com
    ServerAlias www.example.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/onemoreshot
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
    <Directory /var/www/onemoreshot/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =example.com [OR]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.example.com
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]
</VirtualHost>

And my 443 VirtualHost at /etc/apache2/sites-available (instead of example is my domain)

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com
    ServerName example.com
    ServerAlias www.example.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/example
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
    <Directory /var/www/example/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem
</VirtualHost>
</IfModule>

I tried both, redirection by .httaccess and by VirtualHost.
I’m using google domain.

Thanks in advance

Hi there @juanmorschrott,

As you’re using WordPress for your website, it may be much easier to use a WordPress plugin to handle the HTTP->HTTPS rewrites instead of setting up yourself with rewrite rules.

I would suggest a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/#installation to achieve this. You should be able to install it from your WordPress panel under the plugins menu.

Before installing it, I suggest removing your attempts to do the redirection from your htaccess & virtualhost files to avoid any possible issues caused by rule collisions etc.

Hope that helps!
- Matt.

I’ve been looking through the provided annotations and I can’t seem to find one that toggles the ‘Http to Https’ redirect option on DO load balancers?

( I went through this file: https://github.com/digitalocean/digitalocean-cloud-controller-manager/blob/master/do/loadbalancers.go )

At the moment my setup is like this ( terraform based ) :

...
resource "kubernetes_service" "srv" {
        metadata {
                name = "..."
                namespace = "${var.m_namespace}"
                annotations {
                        "service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-protocol" = "http"
                        "service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-algorithm" = "round_robin"
                        "service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-tls-ports" = "443"
                        "service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-certificate-id" = "${var.m_certificate_id}"
                }
        }

        spec {
                selector {
                        app = "..."
                }
                port = [
                        {
                                name = "http"
                                port = 80
                                protocol = "TCP"
                                target_port = 8080
                        }, {
                                name = "https"
                                port = 443
                                protocol = "TCP"
                                target_port =  8080
                        }
                ]

                type = "LoadBalancer"
        }
}
...

What would be the expected annotations for this ( if it is available)? Or what would be an alternative? For now, I’m making the adjustment manually once the load balancer has been provisioned, but that’s really not the expected way of working for me :/

Loving from Rohit Manglik.
