Hello (Ubuntu 20.04 - IspConfig 3.2.9) I can't enable http to https redirection. I put a check mark and it stays, but does not show website. SSL is checked. Client wildcard ssl is added. When I remove check mark and leave http everything is ok, but when I put check mark redirect to https. The site is down.
Is there a cms installed in that website? if yes, did you configure the cms for https already? E.g. if you install Wordpress with http and not https, then enable https redirect, then the web server redirects from http to https and Wordpress redirects you back from https to http, so you produce a loop and the site will not show up. The solution is to reconfigure WordPress (or other CMS) for https before turning on the redirect.
Thanks for your work around Taleman. I am familiar with Moodle. Here's something else. When i write, https site is not available. I tried various versions, here I write https, put ssl and check redirect. Doesn't work at all. Works only http, like now
Ok, so there is no problem with SSL redirect but with SSL. If SSL does not work, then enabling SSL redirect must fail of course, as you enforce traffic redirected to a protocol that's not available for the site. So the next step is that you enable SSL in the site settings and either create an SSL cert on the SSL tab if you want to buy a cert from an SSL authority or enable let's encrypt for the website. If Let's encrypt checkbox gets unticked after a minute, then LE refuses to issue a cert for this site, in this case see FAQ to find out why: https://forum.howtoforge.com/threads/lets-encrypt-error-faq.74179/
