http https redirect

Question

Hello, I set up a new droplet with the wordpress default, I also enabled ssl with the certbot, i asked for the cert bot to configure a forward of http to https, but it didn’t work for me. I’ve tried adding the permanent redirect line in the config file, but it doesn’t seem to have taken it up? Location: /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf here’s my config:

UseCanonicalName On

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

        ServerName 40acresproject.com
        ServerAlias www.40acresproject.com
        Redirect permanent / https://40acresproject.com/

        DocumentRoot /var/www/html

        <Directory /var/www/html/>
            Options FollowSymLinks
            AllowOverride All
            Require all granted
        </Directory>

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log

        DocumentRoot /var/www/html

        <Directory /var/www/html/>
            Options FollowSymLinks
            AllowOverride All
            Require all granted
        </Directory>

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =40acresproject.com [OR]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.40acresproject.com
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]
</VirtualHost>

Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks for the help.

So I’ve looked for httpd.conf file, I cannot find it. the only conf file referenced in apache is 000-default.conf (which contents i posted above) there also is no .htaccess file present anywhere in the website.

Hi @garfield1979 , Open Apache/conf/httpd.conf find #LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so and delete # Overwrite .htaccess with RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$ RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R] Then restart Apache service. Kind regards,Shiroka
