Topic: Redirect loop after enabling HTTPS on fresh iRedMail install
Hi everyone, I’m new to iRedMail and just set up a fresh server. After enabling HTTPS, I’m getting a redirect loop when accessing both Roundcube and the admin panel.
Here’s the required info:
==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
iRedMail version: 1.7.1
Deployed with: Downloadable installer
Linux distribution: Ubuntu 22.04
Mail storage backend: MySQL
Web server: Nginx
Using iRedAdmin-Pro? No
Error message: Browser shows “ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS”. Nginx error log shows repeated:
rewrite or internal redirection cycle while processing "/"
Issue:
Everything works normally over HTTP. As soon as I enable SSL by adding my certs to the Nginx config, all web interfaces end up in a redirect loop.
Question:
Is there a standard change needed in the default Nginx config to safely enable HTTPS?
Or is there a specific block in the iRedMail-generated config that must remain untouched?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
