Hi,

I have created a application with ruby 1.8.7 and rails 2.3.2.  
The application is running in the URL [http://localhost/dashboard/](http://localhost/dashboard/)  
I want to run the application using https like  
[https://localhost/dashboard](https://localhost/dashboard)

Could you anybody have idea or guides to get it work?

Thank you.
