Hey. letsencrypt’s auto option should do this for you so I am guessing it’s possible you do not have the rewrite module enabled. This can be fixed by running sudo a2enmod rewrite; sudo service apache2 restart

I have a fresh LAMP server I ran letsencrypt on the other day with a pretty standard configuration and redirects are working as expected so I’ll just share that config with you.

letsencrypt creates two configuration files if you opt for the redirect http to https option. The first is for the non-https (port 80) host.

<VirtualHost *:80>
 ServerName sub.example.org
 DocumentRoot /var/www/sub
 DirectoryIndex index.php
 <Directory /var/www/sub/>
 AllowOverride All
 Order Deny,Allow
 Allow from all
 </Directory>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,QSA,R=permanent]
</VirtualHost>

Then the file created for the SSL (port 443) host:

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
 ServerName sub.example.org
 DocumentRoot /var/www/sub
 DirectoryIndex index.php
 <Directory /var/www/sub/>
 AllowOverride All
 Order Deny,Allow
 Allow from all
 </Directory>
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/sub.example.org/cert.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/sub.example.org/privkey.pem
Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/sub.example.org/chain.pem
</VirtualHost>
</IfModule>

Nginx:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name .example.com;

    location / {
        rewrite ^(.*) https://example.com$request_uri;
    }
}

server {
    listen {IP}:443 ssl;
    server_name example.com;
    ssl_certificate     /etc/ssl/certs/example.com/example_com.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/certs/example.com/example.com.key;

    root "/var/www/example.com";
    error_log  "/var/log/nginx/error.example.com.log";

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ index.html;
    }
}

Hallo ryanpq,

I have already the two configuration files you mentioned and I ve enabled a2enmod rewrite but still not redirecting HTTP
When I compared your configuration files with mine, the <VirtualHost *:443> is the same.but

I have for example in <VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName sub.example.org —–my conf–>RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =sub.example.org

do you think that I should change it

Thanx

I have installed SSL manually on my website and configured apache2 virtual host. installation is successful but I am facing issue with redirection. What is it doing, it is combining the .com extention with the directive selected. Can anyone please help me troubleshoot this issue.

Code goes here.

<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerAdmin admin@pinnacledu.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
ServerName pinnacledu.com
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/pinnacleducom.crt
SSLCertificatekeyFile /etc/ssl/certs/pinnacledu.com.key
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/certs/pinnacleducom.ca-bundle
<Directory /var/www/html>
AllowOverride All
Options FollowSymlinks
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName pinnacledu.com
Redirect / https://pinnacledu.com/
</VirtualHost>
