Webdispatcher - Force HTTPS

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

i have followed the documentation regarding the SAP Webdispatcher, and have set up the redirecting of URLs for enabling HTTPS, but am running into some issues.

I have a Webdispatcher, version 720, that handles requests from two websites:

www.shop1.com (ISA shop)

www.shop2.com (WCEM Shop)

For www.shop2.com I have loaded an SSL certificate and going to https://www.shop2.com is working, and will produce an SSL secured connection to the shop. However, as soon as I click a link in that shop, it will link to a standard HTTP page.

So, I thought I could fix this by using a redirect on the Webdispatcher. I added the following rule:

icm/HTTP/redirect_0 = PREFIX=/, FROM=*, FOR=www.shop2*, FROMPROT=http, PROT=https 

In my understanding, this should take all https traffic for www.shop2.com and redirect it to https. However, when testing it by typing http://www.shop2.com I do not get redirected to https://www.shop2.com.

I also use a modification handler that will add the correct querystring so that my WCEM application understands it, but I don't think that has any impact right?

if "%{HTTP_HOST}" regimatch "www.shop2*" 
RegRewriteUrl "^/$" "/main/catalog/home.jsf?wec-appid=SHOP_Template" [code=temp,qsappend]

Am I missing something, or is there a flaw in my logic?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Yordy

Perhaps you can try in this way:

icm/HTTP/redirect_0 = PREFIX=/, FROM=/*, FOR=shop2.com*, FROMPROT=HTTP, PROT=HTTPS, HOST=www.shop2.com, PORT=443
