We’ve been working with Cloudflare for a long time and HTTP to HTTPS redirects have always worked.
Everything stopped working last week…
When we pause Cloudflare, the site is accessible in HTTP and HTTPS. As soon as we activate Cloudflare, the site is only accessible in HTTPS and HTTP no longer redirects. The site goes into timeout…
Thanks for you help Allan… but unfortunately it’s been active for a very long time… what’s really strange is that it’s been working for years on all our sites (over 30)… and suddenly nothing! If I set Cloudflare to Pause, http (port 80) works…
It also appears to load correctly for me. So there may be an issue with either your connection to Cloudflare or it’s to your origin, but it’s not http to https redirection that is the issue.
Indeed you don’t seem to have this problem… if we try from several places in Canada, here is what we get as error… indeed it doesn’t seem to be a redirection error…
