A very kludgy solution is to override the 403 error page and have it perform the redirect. This assumes that you add "SSLRequireSSL" to the existing ".htaccess" file that is producing the 500-error and override the top-level ErrorDocument 403 document. This description is intentionally vague and it is left as an exercise to implement. The major problem with this plan is that it will override a default error page that is also used when directory listings are prohibited and/or cuwebauth authorized denied errors.
