Apache configuration for redirections ( redirects.conf ) always redirects user to the http:// scheme. Since we support SSL on most site, we should stick to whatever protocol was requested by the user. Example of buggy redirection: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} mediawiki.org RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://www.mediawiki.org/$1 [R=301,L] Should either redirect to a relative URL ( //www.mediawiki.org ) or replace http with SERVER_PROTOCOL
