Hi, I would like to set up a Django application to be fully secure. That is to say only available with SSL. If the user types in http://example.com they should be redirected to https://example.com . I don't want the user to get a warning that the certificate is not for my domain so I assume that means I need to provide my own certificate? How do I set that up? What Django settings and Webfaction control panal settings need to be set for this to work? Thanks! asked 09 Nov '10, 17:29 Adam |
You create a "Static/PHP/CGI" application that only holds a redirect to https://domain.com and mount it to http://domain.com. The django app would be mounted to https://domain.com with another website record. http://docs.webfaction.com/software/static.html#redirect-a-domain-with-a-static-cgi-php-app As for the certificate you must send us a support ticket. Your account will need a Dedicated IP address for each custom certificate you want us to install, they are 5$ a month and we can enable it anytime. answered 09 Nov '10, 18:54 johns Does this 5$ certificate work with subdomains, or are those separate certificates?

John wasn't referring to a $5 certificate - we do not sell certificates. He was referring to a $5 dedicated IP address - however, since Nov 2010 when he posted that answer, dedicated IPs are no longer a strict requirement for SSL (unless you need to support visitors using legacy operating systems and browsers).
