If I understand correctly what you've done with the settings, that's a browser issue, not a GeoServer issue. You'll have that problem with every website that completely disables the http port. If you allow your web server to listen on the http port, it may be possible to have it redirect to https automatically. See, e.g., https://developer.jboss.org/thread/234635 for using web.xml or apache.conf to rewrite http to https (have not tried myself). For web servers other than JBoss, you'll have to adapt the web.xml solution.
If you're using Firefox, it appears that recent versions have an https-only option. There are also extensions available. Just search for "default firefox use https" in Google and you should see your options. ( Again, I haven't actually tried them.) If you're using a different browser, just put that into the search instead of firefox. --------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Stein, Northrop Grumman Defense Systems From: Rob Hughes via Geoserver-users <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2020 05:07 To: [email protected] Subject: EXT :[Geoserver-users] Downloading a layer preview defaults to http Hi, We have setup our geoserver server to use https and disabled use of http. When I try to download a layer preview I get a "Hmmm... can't reach this page" error, but if I just put https:// at the front of the url the download works fine. So it looks like the download link is defaulting to use http:// Does anybody know how to change this to default to use https:// ? Regards Rob
