Doc #54591 [Com]: http://doc.php.net redirect to https

Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54591&edit=1 ID: 54591 Comment by: tyra3l at gmail dot com Reported by: tyra3l at gmail dot com Summary: http://doc.php.net redirect to https Status: Closed Type: Documentation Problem Package: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: bjori Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: "The channels themselves have no need to be on https though" yeah, but currently, they are, because they are on the same vhost. we could add the pear files and dirs as exceptions to the redirect rule, but that would be cumbersome. I agree that there is no need to move the channels to https, and that breaks bc (some ppl. could have firewall rules, which would prevent pear/pecl from working through https), but if we want to force the https transition on the sites, we have to do something about this issue. maybe check for useragent? AFAIK pear sets that to PEAR/PEAR_VERSION/PHP/PHP_VERSION so we could use that to decide whether we should redirect or not. a little bit hackish though.

The channels themselves have no need to be on https though, don't think its worth the trouble to try to separate these though ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-04-22 14:40:25] bjori@php.net Automatic comment from SVN on behalf of bjori Revision: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/?view=revision&revision=310435 Log: doc.php.net should be on https, fixes bug#54591 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-04-22 14:26:03] tyra3l at gmail dot com Description: ------------ currently http://doc.php.net is redirected to https, I don't know why this is necessary, but this host is also used as a pear repository (and a default one), but the channel.xml on that host contains references to http://doc.php.net so currently there are many unnecessary roundtrips and redirects involved with that channels. I think that if we need doc.php.net to be only available through https, then the channel.xml should also use the https links to save the network ping-pong. On the sidenote: why do we force ssl on that page? depending on the answer, maybe it would be a good idea to force it on pear.php.net/pecl.php.net also (then update the pear stuff there also) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54591&edit=1
