Problem
GroupWise 7 changed the URL for webaccess from /servlet/webacc to /gw/webacc. I wanted to automatically redirect my users to the new page.
Solution
I adapted the syntax from TID 10016636 for redirecting GroupWise to SSL. My script redirects both http and https requests to https at the same time.
Example
<VirtualHost 10.1.3.6:443>
DocumentRoot SYS:apache2/htdocs
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/servlet\/webacc
RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/gw/webacc [L,R]
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost _default_:80>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/servlet\/webacc
RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/gw/webacc [L,R]
</VirtualHost>
Note: This solution was tested with Apache 2 on OES NetWare.
