[using Pound 2.6 with Apache backends]

Hello, I've been trying to use .htaccess in Apache sites with this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{ENV:HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
[L,R=301,NE]

But client browser says "the server is redirecting the request for this
address in a way that will never complete"
I've been doing many tests and it seems to be a problem between Apache's
redirect and Pound frontend.
This pound installation only receives traffic for port 80.
If I try:
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.net%{REQUEST_URI}
[L,R=301,NE]
Redirects perfectly because target URL doesn't point to this Pound service.

What can I do to allow this type of redirection with Apache's rewrite?

Thanks.

Try setting

RewiteLocation 0

from man page:

        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.

Thanks; it didn't worked because the problem was (my fault) the lack of
X-Forwarded-Proto header from port 443 visits (without proxy*).

Solved adding to listener:
AddHeader "X-Forwarded-Proto: http"
And reversing one logic of Apache directive to:
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} http

Thanks.

(*) I use sltd with SNI, no proxying.
