Our campus has an SSL certificate for www.csulb.edu. If you go to
https://www.csulb.edu everything works peachy.
Now, if you go to https://csulb.edu, you get an error. I talked to our
server admin and he said it's because our certificate is registered to
www.csulb.edu and not csulb.edu. He said only a wildcard certificate
would fix this problem, but that something that the campus doesn't want
to do for security and cost reasons.
So, is it possible to set up a rewrite condition such that when someone
tries to navigate to https://csulb.edu, it will automatically redirect
the user to https://www.csulb.edu and avoid the certificate error? I
tried using the following in a .htaccess file and it didn't work (still
got the error):
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !www
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R]
I thought maybe if the above code was put somewhere in the httpd.conf
file it might work?
It seems like a long-shot (admin didn't think it'd work), but I figured
I'd ask the experts here. Any other possible ways to work around this?
Thanks!
Mike
