update:

• attaching configuration files for the redirector ec2
• copied "conf.d" directory from ec2 (amazon linux) to my local

next steps:

• modify bioviz playbooks to include the redirector configurations
• obtain ssl certs for transvar.org

This is needed to support older versions of IGB which try to open the user's guide home page on startup.

need to add the above configuration to the bioviz host instead of running this redirection service on an ec2

The 'Go to IGB User's Guide' option in help in IGB opens the mentioned link https://wiki.bioviz.org/confluence/display/igbman.

Closing the ticket.

To test:

1. Start IGB
2. Select Help > Go to IGB User's Guide

What should happen is that your Web browser should open, showing the following URL:

• https://wiki.bioviz.org/confluence/display/igbman

Please check.

Replaced above configuration with:

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName wiki.transvar.org
         
    ProxyRequests Off
    ProxyVia Off
     
    <Proxy *>
         Require all granted
    </Proxy>
 
    SSLEngine On
    SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/star_transvar_org.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/transvar_privateKey.pem
    SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/DigiCertCA.crt
#    Redirect 301 / https://bioviz.org/help.html
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule "^/?(.*)" "https://wiki.bioviz.org/$1" [R=301,L]

</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName wiki.transvar.org
#    Redirect 301 / https://bioviz.org/help.html
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule	"^/?(.*)" "https://wiki.bioviz.org/$1" [R=301,L]

This appears to be working.

I think the above problem may be due to my browser caching the redirection. My Safari browser does not exhibit the same problem.
However, I think I should modify the intended redirection so that transvar wiki links will properly redirect to bioviz wiki pages.

Current configuration for wiki.transvar.org, which is not working right now:

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName wiki.transvar.org

    ProxyRequests Off
    ProxyVia Off

    <Proxy *>
         Require all granted
    </Proxy>

    SSLEngine On
    SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/star_transvar_org.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/transvar_privateKey.pem
    SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/DigiCertCA.crt
    Redirect 301 / https://bioviz.org/help.html
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName wiki.transvar.org
    Redirect 301 / https://bioviz.org/help.html
</VirtualHost>

I've deployed a host "Redirector" (34.199.0.187) which redirects transvar domain requests to either jira.bioviz.org or wiki.bioviz.org.
Logging into the host to reconfigure the wiki redirection.
Added AL and NF public keys to the list of authorized logins.
