Domain Redirect on S3 missing colon https//

The issue you're experiencing with the redirect is likely due to a small formatting error in your S3 bucket's static website hosting configuration. Based on the screenshot you provided, the protocol in the "Host name" field is missing a colon after "https". This is causing the malformed URL in your redirect.

To fix this, you should edit your S3 bucket's static website hosting settings as follows:

1. Open the Amazon S3 console and navigate to your bucket (householdcavalry.co.uk).
2. Go to the "Properties" tab.
3. Under "Static website hosting", click "Edit".
4. In the "Host name" field, ensure the URL is correctly formatted as "https://householdcavalrymuseum.co.uk" (note the colon after "https").
5. For the "Protocol" setting, choose "https" from the dropdown menu.
6. Save your changes.

After making these adjustments, the redirect should work correctly, sending visitors to "https://householdcavalrymuseum.co.uk" without the extra forward slashes at the end.

Remember that it may take a short while for the changes to propagate. If you're still experiencing issues after making these corrections, double-check your Route 53 settings to ensure they're correctly pointing to your S3 bucket's website endpoint.

Also, make sure that your S3 bucket has the appropriate permissions set to allow public access for the static website hosting feature to work properly.

Your redirect seems to be working ok for me

Still not working. So it's not a propagation issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I also had the same issue. It turned out to be with the local browser cache in Chrome on my windows PC.

Firstly, confirm that the redirect is working correctly from a different computer or mobile phone. If it is, then the issue you have is probably also on just your local computer.

I resolved it using the following approx approach. Apologies it's not specific, I can't re-create the issue as I have now resolved it!

1. Open the website and let the redirect fail.
2. Open Chrome Developer Tools (F12)
3. Select 'Network' in the top bar.
4. In the list of items underneath the graph, you should see the name of the website you are trying to redirect to. Right click on this and select Clear Browser Cache, and then Clear Browser Cookies.

Hope this works for you.

I've updated the settings to this.

The Endpoint that I'm testing is this.... http://householdcavalry.co.uk.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/

It's been 24 hours and the updated settings are still resolving to... https//householdcavalrymuseum.co.uk//

I can't figure out why. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
