Hi everybody!

I'm using CB 2 with nginx_apache.

My customer has a account that has 1 main domain and he adds 4 alias domain for his Joomla website, using HTTP, everything is fine.

Today, he buy a SSL for that main domain and it work very well, redirect from HTTP to HTTPS very smothly

But 4 alias domain donot like that, 4 alias domain always be redirected to HTTPS and certainly, the certificate is not for 4 alias domain so they always show the Notice SSL page.

Please tell me, how to config main domain work with both HTTPS and the alias domain only work with HTTP, is there the reason is due to Joomla rules?

Thanks all so much!
 
The .htaccess file in the public_html directory is probably taking effect over the subdirectories. If they do redirect to HTTPS with .htaccess, that should be it. To fix it, create appropriate .htaccess files in the subdirectores.

But i don't understand your ideal.
There is no subdirectoties related here and the .htaccess is get from Joomla 3.6 installation like that:

My gut feeling is that you first visited the domain pointer by using https, and then your browser cached that, and next time your browser redirect you to https. To rule this out, you should clear all cache and history from your browser, restart it, and test again. Or maybe better use a browser wich you have not used on that domain pointer before.
