URL Rewrite from HTTPS to HTTPS

I have a URL * I need to redirect it to *
* is bound in IIS 8.0, but has no SSL certificate and we don't want to purchase one for cost reasons. is bound in IIS 8.0 and has an SSL certificate.

They are on the same site on the same server. If someone comes to http://a.site.edu* they see the same site as if they came to http://a.nother.site.edu. That's what we want. If they come to https://a.nother.site.edu, that works as expected. However, when they come to https://a.site.edu, they get an error so we want to redirect them to https://a.nother.site.edu Can we redirect from https://a.site.edu* to https://a.nother.site.edu* without getting an error message? We are on Windows 2012 using IIS 8.0 with URL Rewrite 2.0 installed. I have tried many types of configurations, but I always get a security error something like this:

Secure Connection Failed

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

Thanks for all replies.

You cannot redirect away from a SSL verification error because the SSL verification is done before the redirect happens. No workarounds.
