Is there a method for redirecting HTTPS domain without a certificate to one with a certificate in Apache 2 or to HTTP?
If no certificate is found, go to HTTP instead.

It's the same as any other redirect.– Michael HamptonFeb 14, 2019 at 22:43

But how do I check if its not certified? And initiate the redirect base on that fact– Maciek SemikFeb 14, 2019 at 23:00

1You could check if HTTPS is not enabled with RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on.– FreddyFeb 14, 2019 at 23:34

Is this your server? It doesn't have a certificate if you didn't install one.– Michael HamptonFeb 14, 2019 at 23:41

If you don't have a valid TLS certificate for a server / virtual host, browsers won't connect to it without giving a warning.
A TLS connection must be properly set up before the HTTP redirect message can be sent to the client.
I suggest you get a free Let's Encrypt certificate on your server and use HTTPS.

I have certificates for all my domains and subdomains. But in the case that someone who thinks www is needed, they might write www.subdomain.example.com and it gives a security warning. I would like to redirect unsecured to anything secure. Feb 16, 2019 at 19:00

1Then you need to have a wild card certificate for all the
