end-state HTTPS externalRedirect Fails

[triley]

I am attempting to redirect to a flow from an end-state going from HTTP to HTTPS and Web Flow (2.2.1.RELEASE) keeps redirecting to back to HTTP.

Here is the scenario...

1. User requests http://localhost:8080/app/myflow.do
2. User clicks a button to submit a form
3. Flow transitions to an end-state
   

   <end-state id="secure" view="externalRedirect:https://localhost:8443/app/myflow.do" />

4. Web Flow submits the redirect to HTTPS but submits a second redirect back to HTTP resulting in the user remaining at HTTP.

Here is what I have tried and all have failed.

1. Redirecting to an Spring MVC controller to invalidate the session and sendRedirect
   

   <end-state id="secure" view="redirect:/controller/redirect.do" />

2. Implementing a Custom Flow Handler and overridding the handleExecutionOutcome. I tried the following return values and all have produced the same result.
   
   • null
   • /controller.redirect.do
   • externalRedirect:https://localhost:8443/app/myflow.do
3. Redirecting to the same webflow just renamed (e.g. myflow.xml == securemyflow.xml)
   

   <end-state id="secure" view="externalRedirect:https://localhost:8443/app/securemyflow.do" />

Does anyone know how to end a web flow so it does not send a redirect back to itself? Note I am not using Spring Security so I do not want to setup the ChannelProcessingFilter and this works with Spring MVC but not with Spring Web Flow.

Sincerely,
Tim
