Description

@cpitclaudel

Type: ruleset issue
Domain: mit.edu

The ruleset in MIT.xml says this:

<rule from="^http://(www\.)?mit\.edu/" to="https://web.mit.edu/" />

This translates e.g. http://www.mit.edu/~cpitcla/test (which works) into https://web.mit.edu/~cpitcla/test (404). Working HTTPS URLs for that page include https://www.mit.edu/~cpitcla/test (no need to rewrite the www part into web) and https://web.mit.edu/cpitcla/www/test (no ~, extra www).

This is documented here: http://kb.mit.edu/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3907090 .

It looks like the issue was introduced by #14169 or #12002 maybe?

+	<rule from="^http://(www\.)?mit\.edu/" to="https://web.mit.edu/" />
