How to force SSL if lighttpd is behind an AWS ELB.

Added by MetaYii about 10 years ago

Hi, I have an AWS ELB with 2 listeners, one for TCP 80 and one for TCP 443, both forwarding to lighttpd's in port 80 (SSL cert is in the ELB). How could I force HTTPS?

Thanks for any help.

Note, this recipe doesn't work for the use case:

Does $HTTP['scheme'] contain the value for x-forwarded-proto?
