I have an .htaccess file with a rewrite rule to get a redirect of every HTTP request to HTTPS.

But now I have a problem that my robots.txt is not recognized by some online checker. If I remove the redirect from the .htaccess file the robots.txt is recognized correctly.

Maybe I should exclude that the robots.txt is redirects to an HTTPS connection?

This is the part of .htaccess for redirecting to HTTPS

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$            
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L]
