My site won't automatically redirect from HTTP to HTTPS. Have gone through the forums and documentations but can't figure it out so posting. I am quite newbie to Magento. I am using Magento ver. 2.4.1. What I am trying to do is this:-

www.mywebsite.com
should automatically redirect to
https://www.mywebsite.com

My Magento settings are enter image description here enter image description here

Try to add the following config to your .htaccess file:

## Redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS
    RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Port} !443
    RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

Your .htaccess file should looks like this:

  • I have tried it but without success. Have added those lines in the .htaccess file restarted Apache but it didnt work. Then I tried changing "Auto-Redirect to base URL" to "No" while keeping the changes in the .htaccess file but it still didnt work. Kindly suggest.

  • @DebtanuB I've added more .htaccess config. Please give it a try. What is the output of the following command? bin/magento config:show web/secure/offloader_header. If the value is SSL_OFFLOADED, try running the following command to change it to X-Forwarded-Proto: bin/magento config:set web/secure/offloader_header "X-Forwarded-Proto" and clear the cache.
