Thanks to you all for your excellent contributions. Now I have my vhost set to the below and Apache Server restarted and it partially solved the issue, I observed a redirect from "adaoma.shop" to "https://www.adaoma.shop" in Opera browser, however, Firefox and Chrome purged "The page isn't redirecting properly". Will appreciate more helps.

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin admin@adaoma.shop
        ServerName adaoma.shop
        ServerAlias www.adaoma.shop
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html/adaoma/
        <Directory /var/www/html/adaoma/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride All
                Require all granted
        </Directory>
        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
        RedirectMatch permanent ^/(.*)$ http://www.adaoma.shop/$1       
</VirtualHost>

One more issue to be tackled also, which is the redirect issue from http to https. Please take a look at an example url below.

http://adaoma.shop/blog

I do not get the desired redirect feature from http to https and my url part-field is not been captured in a redirect when https is not used in the redirect url string. :slight_smile:

There's a redirect loop for www.adaoma.shop. http://www.adaoma.shop/ redirects to http://www.adaoma.shop/ (i.e.: itself), causing the loop. As http://adaoma.shop/ also redirects to http://www.adaoma.shop/, it also enters the same loop after the initial redirect.

Currently, there is no HTTP to HTTPS redirect.

Also, adaoma.shop still presents a certificate for just the www subdomain.

What are you suggesting I do now?

Shouldn't that be to https://www... (not http:)

Can you be more specific? Changing http to https should not cause a syntax error.

What error message do you see?

Ok...
But you haven't covered all the bases:

http://www.adaoma.shop    forwards to https://www.adaoma.shop [GOOD]
http://adaoma.shop        forwards to https://www.adaoma.shop [GOOD]
https://www.adaoma.shop   works as expected                   [GOOD]
https://adaoma.shop       fails with cert security warning    [BAD]

Step #1: Ensure there is a cert to cover the name adaoma.shop and it is being used.
Step #2: Build a vhost (to serve the redirection to "www") for site https://adaoma.shop
OR modify the existing HTTPS vhost and ensure both names are being served and add the redirection to "www" therein.

You need to get another cert, with both names on it:
www.adaoma.shop, adaoma.shop

As shown here crt.sh | adaoma.shop your present certificate has only www.adaoma.shop matching, where your 2022-07-08 certificate had (has) adaoma.shop and www.adaoma.shop matching.
