The following lines are in the .htaccess I wrote.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^40.230.60.270
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.mywebsite.com/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
It redirects when I type this in the browser. http://40.230.60.270
But when I write like this, it doesn’t redirect. https://40.230.60.270
I bought SSL certificate for two years and there was no problem with the certificate.
Can anyone tell me what its rewrite condition is ?

Hello,
Do you have a VirtualHost entry matching the IP address 40.230.60.270 with https and not http? If there is an entry for the IP address with https this will be the reason.
Create a VirtualHost entry matching 40.230.60.270 as ServerName, but not using https, but http instead. Then redirect this to your domain name.
Let me know how it goes.
Hello.
I am having this same issue. I have tried to create a new VirtualHost entry as my ServerName but the https://ip is not redirecting to https://domain.
Currently the http://ip is redirecting to the https://domain.
When I tried to create a redirect on the VirtualHost on port 443 all my entry points ( https://ip and https://domain ) stop working, giving a ‘not allowed to acess this resource error’.
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /dev/null
ServerName http://ip
ServerAlias domain.com www.domain.com
