I have Ubuntu 12.04 / nGinx running. Installed the SSL and all was working fine.

Now I want to force www to always be part of the URL so I currently have as the sites-available config:

#force public http to http://www
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
rewrite ^(.*) http://www.example.com$1 permanent;
}


server {
listen 80;
server_name http://www.example.com;
[......]
}

#force secure https to https://www
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name example.com;
rewrite ^(.*) https://www.example.com$1 permanent;
}


server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name https://www.example.com;
ssl_certificate /srv/ssl/www.example.com.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /srv/ssl/www.example.com.key;
[......]
}

But now all i get is "The connection was interrupted page".
Error logs show nothing, nginx restart produces no errors or warnings.

The SSL used www in the name during the key / crt generation.

Any ideas? Suggestions would be great.

As always thanks!

Dave

Sorry, I dont use nGinx

Does it still use .htaccess?

If so just add this into the .htaccess file (altered accordingly)

# Redirect non-www urls to www
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.yoursite\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.yoursite.com/$1 [R=301,L]
