Apache and problem with redirect between HTTP and HTTPS

Dear everyone,

I installed Apache 2.2.4 and I have problem with redirect. Please help me and below my config (also what I need to run for my site)

My Apache had configurated with SSL and auto redirect from non SSL to SSL (HTTP > HTTPS)

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>

        ServerName ABC.COM

        ServerAlias www.ABC.COM

        <Location />

                Redirect permanent / https://ABC.COM/

        </Location>

</VirtualHost>



<VirtualHost *:443>

        ServerName ABC.COM

        ServerAlias www.ABC.COM

        DocumentRoot /home/ABC/www/ABC.COM

        <Directory /home/ABC/www/ABC.COM>

            DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

            Order allow,deny

            Allow from all

        </Directory>

        SSLEngine on

        SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.crt

        SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.key

        SSLCertificateChainFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.crt

</VirtualHost>

So, above the config is good and no problem until in this site had link like as: ABC.COM/TEST (ABC.COM/TEST/view?code=12)
At this link, I want to redirect it from HTTPS to HTTP for this link only, but I don't know way to do.

Default is HTTPS for all, but ABC.COM/TEST (also ABC.COM/TEST/view?code=12) is HTTP only

Please help me. Thank so much

I use this format:

Code:

<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80>

  ServerName www.mydomain.com

  ServerAlias mydomain.com

  RedirectMatch 301 (.*) https://www.mydomain.com$1

</VirtualHost>

Thank you, Sir. But I need to redirect 1 sub-link (subfolder, ...) from https (ssl) to http (non ssl). In your config is redirect from non ssl to ssl

Ah, my mistake, I've not had my first coffee today :)

@OP
Remove the redirect and use mod_rewrite:

Code:

RewriteEngine On



RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/TEST

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off

RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

Sorry, I don't understand because as I known your rewrite code will made from URL-NoSSL to URL-SSL (if so, not right as my case), please check it!

What you mean by that?
The above code will rewrite all http requests to https except from /TEST(.*). Isn't that what you want to do?

If you want to rule out the possibility that someone uses https://ABC.COM/TEST..., you can add in the SSL virtualhost configuration, the following:

Code:

RewriteEngine On



RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/TEST

RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
