    On Debian, for a reason I don't understand, when you on call you IP server with http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx you'll redirect in /var/ww/html (ok) but if you go on httpS://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx you'll redirect in /var/www/clients/client1/web1
    How fix that ? is like /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl.conf is not used
    I tried to start a2ensite default-ssl, but it changed nothing
    Thx for your help

    Try renaming the site from default-ssl to 000-default-ssl.

    Thx Jesse,
    In fact, I renamed the symbolic link default-ssl.conf 000-default-ssl.conf -> ../sites-available/default-ssl.conf in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
    But I have a security alerte about the certificat named about the fqdn when I recah the machine by it's fqdn... weird.
    Anyway, thank for you awnser. I'm using ISPconfig in a professionnel way since 10 years (yes I started with ISP v2, we're getting old) and I'm very happy.

    That is most probably because you did not have vhost for your server FQDN. ;)

    You're right ahrasis, but it's the same for default (http) and it's works ;)
    It's mandatory for me to works with https, it's just a security issue. Now you can't reach a website jus using the IP's server with https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

    One of the rule you may need to understand in a web server is not to mix http with https in one server because it will be quite problematic.
