Slow loading and 522 errors

Digging further into the issue, it seems to be an issue with the HTTPS connection.

When I load the pages http ://example.com the page loads fine

When I load httpS ://example.com the page struggles to loads then times out or give 522 error

I have the website set up using:

  • SSL/TLS encryption mode is Flexible
  • Always Use HTTPS – On

As I have the “Always Use HTTPS” the HTTP page should be redirected to the HTTPS, and the http ://example.com version should be redirected and not load…… There is something strange going on

All the other settings match four other websites which are behaving correctly

The website has been using these settings for the last 18months and has not had problems.

I have checked all CNAME settings and they correctly point at the AWS bucket, and the bucket as the allow all public access.
