I've seen this.

I'm glad to hear you were able to get it to work.. This can be quite tricky for sure.

Nice fix to replace the + with a *, I've since updated the example. Many Thanks!

Thanks for the great article - I've just deployed a version of your solution on a production environment and it's working smoothly.

Please note once change I had to make to make everything work right - in the SSL match I've used an asterisk to match 0 or more characters instead of the plus to match 1 or more. This allows for the direct URL (e.g. just mysite.com.au) to match and catch correctly. In my situation if it doesn't, the environment "ps" variable ends up empty and it attempts to redirect to a url starting with "://" which it assumes is an internal path.

See this link for more info.

Thanks!
