Redirect apache to http requests to https except for when request is a POST?

Question

I have setup my apache2 configuration to redirect http requests to https. This works fine however I want to change it so that it only does this if the request is not a POST request.

Here is my current configuration:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on

RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https:// %{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]

How can I change this configration so that it only redirects when the request is not a POST?

Answer 1

Add a new RewriteCond line:

RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} !^POST$ RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https:// %{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]
