Redirect HTTP to HTTPS

I found this simple instruction on how to redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS. It explains

Redirect permanent / https://www.example.com/

should be placed in the httpd.conf file and Apache should be restarted. However, the person doing development here before me that when he tried this he found the Admin section of CubeCart not working properly (I think he said it wouldn't allow him to login).

Does anyone know what else needs to be done in order to properly redirect all http requests for my shopping cart to https? Is the above method a completely wrong start?

All helps is greatly appreciated!

Well you could start with adding an actual SSL Certificate...

ON your Own IP and having the SSL certificate installed so that https requests actually get listened to on port 443

forcing redirect without a SSL cerfificate is just plain silly

w/o it https will get 500 internal server or several other errors

The shopping cart already is secured. We use it everyday @ https. The other day I accidentally visited our cart at http and realized there may be a lot of customers doing the same and panicking when they cannot login.
