Hi again,
   working with version 2.4.3, I'm encountering a problem with redirecting
users from https to http.

I'm setting a header:  AddHeader "X-Forwarded-Proto: https" and checking it
via PHP.  When the user is accessing a page that doesn't not require https I
redirect them with  php: header("location: http://....");

However, this doesn't have the expected effect, instead of redirecting to
the non-https version of the given page, it enters a redirect loop.  Firefox
reports:
*
Redirect Loop
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this
address in a way that will never complete.*


Notably, the exact same code works fine with pound 2.0, it is only with the
new version that I see the redirect error.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
[...]

RewriteLocation 0|1|2
    If 1 force Pound to change the Location: and Content-location:
headers in responses. If they point to the back-end itself or to the
listener (but with the wrong protocol) the response will be changed to
show the virtual host in the request. Default: 1 (active). If the
value is set to 2 only the back-end address is compared; this is
useful for redirecting a request to an HTTPS listener on the same
server as the HTTP listener.

Hi,

What does the '0' do ?    (RewriteLocation 0|1|2)

And Cam, which valud did you have to use ?

Thanks, Anthony
