Ajenti-V http to https redirection
Hello.
I access most of my websites using https but I always setup a redirection from http to https to avoid connection failing if I enter http://mywebsite.com.
So far, the only way I found to do it is to add a top-level custom configuration with the following code:
server {
listen 0.0.0.0:80;
server_name mywebsite.com;
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
Is there a way of doing it from Ajenti-V UI ?

Customer support service by UserEcho
I have site http://playdirect.me/ and https://playdirect.me/
http version should redirect to https.
the way mentioned above is ok, but server directive not allowed in ajenti Advanced tab :(
It should be simple...
Used the example above of (see below) for the time being but something in the UI would be nicer.
server {
listen 0.0.0.0:80;
server_name mywebsite.com;
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
I'm using Cloudflare Universal SSL but this should work fine for a local cert as well. In the AjentiV dashboard, go to Websites -> yourwebsite.com -> Advanced and enter the following directive in the Custom Configuration text box:
if ($http_cf_visitor ~ '{"scheme":"http"}') {
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
This is the only way I've found to avoid redirect loops while still working solely in the AjentiV UI. Hope it helps!
$http_cf_visitor is registered only on Coudflare. On any common nginx you can do like this:
if ($scheme = http) { return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri; }Works for me like a charm.
I have a fully functional setup but when I add the code Maxim Lanin suggests the redirection is activated however the site stops working. Should I configure nginx conf or any other file prior to adding this code? A full guide of configuring redirections on nginx including http to https, non-www to www, and SSL installation would really help. Thanks
