Mixing SSL and non-SSL content in an Apache2 virtual host
- by gravyface
I have a (hopefully) common scenario for one of my sites that I just can't seem to figure out how to deploy correctly.
I have the following site and directories for example.com:
These need to require SSL:
/var/www/example.com/admin
/var/www/example.com/order
These need to be non-SSL:
/var/www/example.com/maps
These need to support both:
/var/www/example.com/css
/var/www/example.com/js
/var/www/example.com/img
I have two virtual host declarations for the one site in my /sites-available/example.com file; the top one is *:443 the second one is *:80. Since I have two sites, and if a request comes in on 443, the top virtualhost is used, same with the bottom if it's a port 80 request. However, I can't seem to enforce my SSL requirements using SSLRequireSSL because I'm assuming a port 80 request to /admin or /order is not even hitting the *:443 vhost.
Should I just Deny All to /order and /admin within the *:80 virtual host so that if you try to request it on 80, you'll get a 403 Forbidden?
