Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I keep running into a redirect chain issue trying to get a non-https/non-www domain to forward directly to the https/www domain on an Apache server. For background, we are forcing https and forcing www, but it appears the non-https/non-www domain is first redirecting to https/non-www and then redirecting again to the desired final https/www version of the domain. (Hope I am making sense here)

I am trying to find code to add to my .htaccess file that will perform the following...

301 Redirect
http://example.com directly to https://www.example.com (without 1st redirecting to https://example.com)
http://www.example.com directly to https://www.example.com

Any experts in this with any thoughts?

Thanks,
Fitz

Hi Keri,

Did a server header check and the Server Response code is HTTP/1.1 200 OK

In case it helps, I should add it's a Magento site on an Apache server.

Thanks,

Sorry, I know it would help, but I can't. Was just hoping someone had come across the problem before.

I can visit and view every page of a site (can also see source code), but Google, SEOmoz and others say anything other than home page is a 404 and Google won't index the sub-pages. I have check robots.txt and HTAccess and can't find anything wrong. Is this a DNS or server setting problem? Any ideas?

Thanks,

Fitz
