Hello Guys, How can i fix it? ""Connection to this site is not secure" "

Lots of ways this question can spiral...

From the simplest being: You would need to enter "https" on the url, instead of "http".
To the hardest of: Get and setup an ssl cert for your domain and webserver.

It looks like you've got it working now. http redirects to https.
Good job.

Although that may be my browser.

If you haven't set up a https redirect, this thread may be helpful.

Yeah, sometimes a browser just tries the https and goes to it by default (I know Safari is notorious for it).

As for the redirect, while the Rewrite engine can work with an .htaccess file (if thats enabled for overrides), you can also redirect http to https inside the virtualhost directive itself if you have access to the confs. (this is all assuming apache lol).

An example of VirtualHost http to https redirect: https://stackoverflow.com/a/16201658/2960971
