Redirect from HTTP to HTTPS - IIS 7.5

Question

I have implemented https on my application and now i'm trying to make IIS redirect all http request to https, so that the user doesn't even notice this change.

I have changed and tried some of the IIS options but with no luck.

How can i do this?

I'm using IIS 7.5 and ASP.NET 2.0

Answer 1

You can install the RewriteModule and follow the instructions on this page.

Answer 2

The approach described in this blog article works well.

Summary:
1) Turn on "Require SSL" setting for the site.

2) In the Error settings configuration for 403 errors set it to "respond with 302 redirect" with the new URL set to the full URL with the https:// prefix.

Answer 3

you can make a simple check on the global.asax, on beginRequest, something like this code:

protected void Application_BeginRequest(Object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        HttpApplication app = (HttpApplication)sender;

        if(!app.Response.Request.IsSecureConnection)
        {
            app.Response.Redirect(Request.RawUrl.Replace("http://","https://"), true);
            return;
        }
    }

ps. I did not have check this code, I just type it now.

Answer 4

Just in case someone else runs into a http:// site that will not redirect. You also have to have the port 80 binding added to the site.
