Check how to resolve issue of custom module frontend url is forced to https. instead of http. If you have used module creator to create module. Than you will definetly find below code in config.xml

<admin>
       <routers>
         <[ModuleName]>
            <use>admin</use>
            <args>
                <module>[NameSpace_ModuleName]</module>
                <frontName>[frontName]</frontName>
            </args>
        </[ModuleName]>
    </routers>
</admin>

To resolve issue of redirection to https instead of http, you need to comment above code from module config.xml file Path: app/code/(codepool)/(NameSpace)/(ModuleName)/etc/config.xml OR you can add different “frontName” for and routers. Eg.:

<admin>
       <routers>
         <[ModuleName]>
            <use>admin</use>
            <args>
                <module>[NameSpace_ModuleName]</module>
                <frontName>[frontName]</frontName>
            </args>
        </[ModuleName]>
    </routers>
</admin>

<frontend>
       <routers>
         <[ModuleName]>
            <use>standard</use>
            <args>
                <module>[NameSpace_ModuleName]</module>
                <frontName>[frontName1]</frontName>
            </args>
        </[ModuleName]>
    </routers>
</frontend>

As per above code admin url will be http://yourdomain.com/index.php/frontName/adminhtml_moduleName/ and frontend url will be like: http://yourdomain.com/index.php/frontName1
