Hi, I install my wordpress site on an ubuntu 18.04 droplet and after posting a few articles I proceed to install lestencrypt.
My https site works fine, my problem is when trying to enter with http it does not redirect.
This is the .httacces file from my site:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]
And my 80 VirtualHost at /etc/apache2/sites-available (instead of example is my domain):
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com
ServerName example.com
ServerAlias www.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/onemoreshot
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
<Directory /var/www/onemoreshot/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =example.com [OR]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.example.com
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]
</VirtualHost>
And my 443 VirtualHost at /etc/apache2/sites-available (instead of example is my domain)
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com
ServerName example.com
ServerAlias www.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/example
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
<Directory /var/www/example/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem
</VirtualHost>
</IfModule>
I tried both, redirection by .httaccess and by VirtualHost. I’m using google domain.
Thanks in advance

Hi there @juanmorschrott,
As you’re using WordPress for your website, it may be much easier to use a WordPress plugin to handle the HTTP->HTTPS rewrites instead of setting up yourself with rewrite rules.
I would suggest a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/#installation to achieve this. You should be able to install it from your WordPress panel under the plugins menu.
Before installing it, I suggest removing your attempts to do the redirection from your htaccess & virtualhost files to avoid any possible issues caused by rule collisions etc.
Hope that helps! - Matt.
I’ve been looking through the provided annotations and I can’t seem to find one that toggles the ‘Http to Https’ redirect option on DO load balancers?
( I went through this file: https://github.com/digitalocean/digitalocean-cloud-controller-manager/blob/master/do/loadbalancers.go )
At the moment my setup is like this ( terraform based ) :
...
resource "kubernetes_service" "srv" {
metadata {
name = "..."
namespace = "${var.m_namespace}"
annotations {
"service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-protocol" = "http"
"service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-algorithm" = "round_robin"
"service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-tls-ports" = "443"
"service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-certificate-id" = "${var.m_certificate_id}"
}
}
spec {
selector {
app = "..."
}
port = [
{
name = "http"
port = 80
protocol = "TCP"
target_port = 8080
}, {
name = "https"
port = 443
protocol = "TCP"
target_port = 8080
}
]
type = "LoadBalancer"
}
}
...
What would be the expected annotations for this ( if it is available)? Or what would be an alternative? For now, I’m making the adjustment manually once the load balancer has been provisioned, but that’s really not the expected way of working for me :/
