Helo, I'm trying to setup Zope behind an Apache webserver and use Apache for the SSL-support. I want external visitors (from outside) _and_ users of the management interface to be forced to use SSL. I made a /ssl SiteRoot object to https://intranet.company.com/ which works great for accessing the site over https (not managing it) I checked out several howto, such as: http://www.zope.org/Members/fritz/howto_apache_and_siteroot http://www.zope.org/Members/unfo/apache_zserver_ssl but unfortuately they could not solve my problem. The problem I have is that I can't access the root of the ZMI over https (i only get the manage interface for the SSL-folder, which is not the thing I would like). Can anybody explain me how I need to make the rewrite-rules to display the Zope-root instead of the /ssl-folder as root? Is there any way to use a siteroot _and_ access the root folder? Any help would be appreciated, Pieter #------------ start of parts of my Apache httpd.conf RewriteEngine On # force clients from the internet to use HTTPS, # 1.2.3.4=firewall-IP RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^1\.2\.3\.4$ RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L] RewriteRule ^/(.*)manage(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1manage$2 [R,L] RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://127.0.0.1:8080/$1 [L,P] <VirtualHost _default_:443> RewriteEngine On # force clients from the internet to use HTTPS, # 1.2.3.4=firewall-IP # make sure to rewrite http://server:443/ to https://server/ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^1\.2\.3\.4$ RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L] # use zope server at localhost, port 8080 # use ssl SiteRoot to rewrite root to https://server/ instead # of http://127.0.0.1:8080/ RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://127.0.0.1:8080/ssl/1 [L,P] </VirtualHost> #----------------------------------
