This may be an apache config question, im not sure, but i'll ask here anyway.

I recently installed drupal7 on Fedora 23. I'm running Apache and have an existing owncloud installation that is working fine on https://mysite.net/owncloud.

I have configured Apache to redirect all traffic from port 80 to 443 automatically using /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf setting:

<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName mysite.net
   Redirect permanent / https://mysite.net/
</VirtualHost>

I installed drupal but had to comment out the above redirect to get access to the initial installation site localhost/drupal7.

I installed and configured drupal via the install wizard, and I now see the dashboard etc and it all appears to be ok, but as soon as I re-enable the "redirect permanent" config, then the drupal site stops working and I get 403 Forbidden. My owncloud site still works nicely. My question is: Do I have to enable https access in some way in the drupal.conf files or htaccess file or is this purely an Apache config issue with the virtualhost?
