[SOLVED] HTTP to HTTPS redirect withouth specifying hostname?

Issue

I'm looking to redirect any web request to HTTP to HTTPS in apache and I have a working solution that I have added to my httpd.conf file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName myhostname.com
        Redirect / https://myhostname.com/
</VirtualHost>

this solution however is host-name dependent and I would like to know if there's a host-name independent method. I tried using ${HOST_NAME} but it didn't work I guess the variable needs to be set before hand.


Solution

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName myhostname.com
</VirtualHost>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

This redirect your whole site, means every http request will be redirected, is this what you want?
