Forcing ssl to particular page and non-ssl to other pages

March 14th, 2013 2 comments

In projects we may need to make sure some of the urls are only accessible from ssl (https). It’s really useful for user sections. And rest of the url should browse from non-ssl (http) link. It can be done with a small htaccess rules.

Here is htaccess hack to do:

#SSL for some pages
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !index\.php$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(signin|signup|account) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

In this block we are checking for ssl off and some url, if match we redirect the user to same url in ssl version.


#SSL off for some pages
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !index\.php$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(signin|signup|account) [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(api) [NC] #allow this url from both ssl and non-ssl
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

In this block we are checking for ssl on and some url, if match we redirect the user to same url in non-ssl version. Here u may notice we are using a extra check ( RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(api) [NC] ) , it’s because in project we may need some url those accisable from both ssl and non-ssl.

install imagemagick support to your debian/ubuntu server

February 2nd, 2008 3 comments

imagemagick is one of the best library to work with image. recently i have to install it to our production server. here is what i did:

$ apt-get install imagemagick

it downloads the package and all it’s dependences from debian/ubuntu repository, and installed. now i have to install the support of php (as our product running on php)

$ apt-get install php5-imagick

then i restarted the apache server to take effect this new package installation. if your using php4 then the package name should be php4-imagick

$ /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

that’s all 🙂

if you need imagemagick for your ruby , you can install the librmagick-ruby package.
