Rails - Jun 2009 - Redirect http to https

We are runnning Rails 2.1/Mongrel/Apache setup and I''m attempting to
configure Rails/Apache to force ssl.  I''ve added the following line in
my httpd-ssl.conf file, under the VirtualHost:

RequestHeader set X_FORWARDED_PROTO ''https''

The redirect does not take place and instead we are seeing the entire
contents of the public directory in the web browser.  When going to
https://, everything works great...just can''t get the redirect to work.
Any suggestions?
