Default Site For Non HTTPS Domain

andipedia

One of the dumbest features in AAPanel is Make one of the existing sites as the automatic default site for non-HTTPS domains.
How come? When we fail to Verify SSL during installation 1 time, the domain will automatically point to the default site...
With this, it will no longer be possible for us to do SSL Verification with Files because the domain directory is changed automatically... So the thing that might be done is to remove the domain. Can't stop thinking about this feature, they don't even think that the main site is Privacy for certain conditions... What kind of crazy thing is this...

Hello, sorry to give you a bad experience
But I don't quite understand what you mean, can you explain in more detail or provide screenshots?
The panel does not have a default site by default, nor does it automatically change the default site, nor does it automatically change the site's directory

When the SSL installation fails once, it is not possible to repeat it with File verification, because the site is automatically redirected to an existing site. so when we try to reinstall with file verification, then verifying the URL file like https://domain.xyz/.well-known/acme-challenge/tsglbfFfJ8JHGBwvGcow4fq5r6WU8tHAgNwXtC0MwJs: 404 will be NOT FOUND, even though the file is already in the directory. I think this is happening because aapanel automatically redirects non https domains to existing sites. Or is there a workaround?

Hello, it is recommended to check whether your website configuration is forced to jump to https, cloudflare or reverse proxy cannot use file verification normally
File verification needs to be accessed using http
If file verification cannot be used, please use dns method for verification.

aaPanel_Kern No, I didn't enable the https Option.
Not helpful at all. 👎

It is recommended to check the website configuration file by yourself

Well it's working now, but not for your help.

andipedia Your case sounded interesting to me, then I clicked to follow the thread... But, here, you take without giving anything. How did you resolve your issue?

From my understanding, @aaPanel_Kern told you that the https scheme at beginning of your URL couldn't succeed by design, until you have a validated certificate. So, during the file challenge, it reaches the file on http:// only.
