Emmanuelle,

Try setting the RestrictToSSL parameter for the main subsite instance at /admin/site-map to: "/*" (without quotes).

cheers,
Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,

I've tried that and it wouldn't work. Then, reading your answers, I realized that probably I need to restart the server so the redirection would be effective and, yes, that was it 😊.

So finally, I've set RestricToSSL to "*" for the main site, without the leading slash otherwise it wouldn't work. I didn't need to set ForceHostP to 1.

Thanks for your help.

Heya Emmanuelle,

Curious, why would one choose to not set ForceHostP? Why choose to set it?
