Redirect https to https://www

[mehargags]

Hello All,
need some advise in redirecting my SSL domain properly. I have the Certiuficates in place. This is what I have in the Configs

/home/admin/conf/web/nginx.conf

Code: Select all

server {
    listen      111.222.333.444:80 ;
    server_name domain.com www.domain.com;
    return	301 https://www.$server_name$request_uri;

/home/admin/conf/web/snginx.conf

Code: Select all

server {
    listen      111.222.333.444:443 ssl http2;
    server_name domain.com www.domain.com;

Now this is the scene when I type the URL:

domain.com redirects properly to https://www.domain.com
but
typing in https://domain.com (non-www) does NOT redirect to https://www.domain.com.

Am I doing it in correctly ?

    server_name mydomain.com;
    root        /home/user/web/mydomain.com/public_html;

I thought so but Since Vesta creates the server block by default like like

Code: Select all

 server_name domain.com www.domain.com

I was hesitant to change it to two different blocks. is that the only way ?

Well, I resolved the issue... I think somehow the Cert. generated did not have naked domain covered. Reissued with

Code: Select all

-d www.domain.tld -d domain.tld

and all htaccess rules started working. Silly...!

Now I wanted to NOT use htaccess and let nginx redirect to https://www. If I write

Code: Select all

return   301 https://www.domain.com$request_uri;

in the listen 172.110.20.76:443; Server block, it stops the whole site... while the same rule works for nonhttps port 80 correctly. What is wrong in here... any clues ?
