Shadow user & developer manuals: serve over https as well.

[Tom-Willemsen]

Where?

https://shadow.nd.rl.ac.uk/ibex_user_manual/Home

How?

• https://shadow.nd.rl.ac.uk/ibex_user_manual/Home does not work to get to the wiki (404)
• http://shadow.nd.rl.ac.uk/ibex_user_manual/Home does work
• Modern browsers will auto-correct http to https where available, this means that the user manual link accessed from Help -> User manual does not work when opened in a modern browser configuration (e.g. IDAAS, scientist desktop installs)

Edit the apache webserver configuration on shadow to serve the manual over both http and https.

Reproducible?

Yes

To Reproduce

Visit https://shadow.nd.rl.ac.uk/ibex_user_manual/Home , notice that it 404s.

Acceptance criteria

• https://shadow.nd.rl.ac.uk/ibex_user_manual/Home works

https now works, there is a redirect on http but also updated GUI links to use https directly

the genie python docs link seems to still try and get http rather than https? as with the footprints link. I know these are in the web links section rather than help pages, but i guess we should still try to link to https pages

[FreddieAkeroyd]

are they all in an external loaded web page, or did i miss something in a grep of the GUI source?

[rerpha]

i think they might be loaded by an external web page actually, sorry

[FreddieAkeroyd]

no problem, thanks for checking, we do need to update the external page though. I see it comes from weblinks.opi

[FreddieAkeroyd]

address in weblinks and target page now updated to https
