Found a cyclic link in ...

These lines from debug.log file shows what have happened when I tried to use HttpsRedirectPlugin with a foswiki 1.1.2 installation. The https redirect plugin is at the latest and from the browser I got this message: Found a cyclic link in https://www.mywiki.com/bin/view/Main/WebHome. What could be going wrong here ?

I am also using apache virtual host for it. The conf file contents is below.

<VirtualHost *:443>
 DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/foswiki-1.1.2"
 ServerName www.mywiki.com
 RedirectMatch ^/$ https://www.mywiki.com/bin/view/Main/WebHome 
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
 DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/foswiki-1.1.2"
 ServerName www.mywiki.com
 RedirectMatch ^/$ http://www.mywiki.com/bin/view/Main/WebHome 
</VirtualHost>


Please post complete apache configuration related to foswiki and apache access_log.

The wiki.conf file is the one which configures related foswiki instance at an apache server. You should add to this file the virtual host tags previously posted here plus an out-of-box apache configuration. This first block was taken from apache access_log file.

And this second block was taken from apaches's error_log file. Although you might find by this log that there is a problem while trying to authenticate on the LDAP server, I should mention that LDAP authentication is properly working and authenticating. When HttpsRedirectPlugin is disabled, the user logs in without any problem and these log occurences are still logged in apache's error_log file.
