Can’t enable .htaccess redirect

When you see the blank page, do you see any console errors (you can check this by right clicking on the screen, then click “inspect element’, console).

Please post any console errors you see here, that should point us in the right direction.

errors:
TypeError: s is undefined
and:
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: s is undefined

and also something about Unsupported media types

Do you need more of the info that is below these lines?

If you install the wp debugging plugin, do you see any errors after enabling this setting in the debug log?

I have installed it, but not sure what I should be looking for in the debug log

i see something about a htaccess error like this:

SELECT option_value FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = ‘rsssl_htaccess_error’ LIMIT 1

require_once(‘wp-admin/admin.php’), do_action(‘admin_init’), WP_Hook->do_action, WP_Hook->apply_filters, rsssl_wrap_htaccess, get_site_option, get_network_option, get_option

Is there also an error in the log? The above shows a select statement, but not an error as such.

No, not a line starting with ERROR to be found, all lines in the log start with either SELECT, SHOW, UPDATE, or DESCRIBE (and not all about rsssl)

just updated my PHP version from 7.4 to 8.1

still no result but now de debug file looks very different. Still nthing about rsssl, but some mentions of PHP Deprecated: strip_tags(): and PHP Deprecated: preg_match(): in wp-includes/formatting.php

but my guess is that this has nothing to do with this?

These have nothing to do with the issue indeed.

I have created a debug version of the plugin:
https://github.com/Really-Simple-Plugins/really-simple-ssl/tree/debug-mode

Can you install this branch (use the green ‘code’ button to download the zip).

Please deactivate the current one first.

Then please post the console log you see here, so I can see some more detail about the error you are experiencing.

when deactivating the current one, should I choose to stay on https or go back to http. My guess is stay on https, but thought it better to check first!

by the way: I have the same issue in another site at the moment so it is not just this site. I think both sites are with the same host, but I would have to check

Please choose to stay on https.

I have just made some changes on this branch, in response to another user with a similar issue. Maybe this resolves your issue as well.

If not, let me know where it fails and I can probably fix it.

Hi Rogier,
Thanks, I finally got around to checking this, and yes, this fixes it! I have renamed the folder (removed the debug-mode) not sure if I should?
Can I now leave it like this? And will future updates work?

Thanks again!

Great, thanks for confirming! This will be included in the next update, so future updates won’t be a problem.
