Using "doors://" and "https://" URLs in parallel

For some years our company used "doors://" URLs. So we have a lot of external links to DOORS (from Test-Tools, Documents, etc.).

Now we like in addition to install DWA in order to OSLC. Unfortunately the DOORS URLs in our test-environment changed to "https://" and the old Links starting with "doors://" doesn't work anymore. So our need is to use booth types of links: "https://" and "doors://" as well for old existing links. Is there any chance to do it? Does anybody else have the same experience and maybe a solution?

When you install DOORS Web Access, there's a procedure to follow that modifies the URIs (for all objects, past, present and future) to the new protocol prefix (http / https). There's a component of DWA called the redirector service that maps those to a doors:// prefix, so that doors:// links should still work. What else changed? This is probably worth a call to the support folks.
