I have this re-write rule on apache and working perfectly redirect to the site I want on ie but not on firefox or chrome. and I am wondering why acting differently on theses browsers??!!

this is my apache rewrite config

  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteLog "/opt/apache/logs/rewrite.log"
  RewriteLogLevel 1
  RewriteCond     %{HTTPS} !=on
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://server/index.php [L,R]

so the apache rule properly redirect to "https://server/index.php but on Firefox/chrome stop at "https://server". is there any mistake on my apache re-write configration?

thanks.

  • Browsers don't have rewrite rules. Check with wireshark what is being sent, and give us more details. – LtWorf Dec 07 '12 at 00:53
  • thanks for the response but not understand what you mean.I didn't say the browser rewrite. this is apache config. and the site properly re-direct. as said it's working just fine with ie. my question is why Firefox not re-direct propelry.so would you tell me the role of wireshark . – raindrop Dec 07 '12 at 02:30

    Check [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/1128624/913097). Also, clean the cache in your browsers. – inhan Dec 07 '12 at 17:48

clean the Firefox/chrome cache and try it again. may be old information on browser conflict with new redirect.

The browsers dont redirect and dont do redirects. Web server does redirects. Browser has nothing to do with it, wether it is Firefox, IE, Safari or whatever.

  • I agree. however my question is about my apache configuration not about the browser because the configuration acting diferently on different borwser. – raindrop Dec 07 '12 at 04:58
  • It could be that Firefox / Chrome just cut off the "index.php" part of your url. However, as long as you only have one index.* file in your https:// folder, this shouldn't affect the outcome. You will still see the same output. – tonino.j Dec 07 '12 at 13:48
