I have started seeing this message after publishing and then running some of my sites. I have never seen this before and I’m wondering what it means?
Misdirected Request
The client needs a new connection for this request as the requested hostname does not match the Server Name Indication (SNI) in use for this connection.
I am seeing those as well, exactly the same message
I have raised a ticket with my provider
This is happening on already published pages from a few weeks ago
cPanel
Many sites use the same TLS certificate for multiple virtual hosts.
The certificate either has a wildcard name, such as ‘*.example.org’ or carries several
alternate names. Browsers using HTTP/2 will recognize that and reuse an already opened
connection for such hosts.
While this is great for performance, it comes at a price: such vhosts need more care
in their configuration. The problem is that you will have multiple requests for
multiple hosts on the same TLS connection. And that makes renegotiation impossible,
in face the HTTP/2 standard forbids it.
So, if you have several virtual hosts using the same certificate and want to use
HTTP/2 for them, you need to make sure that all vhosts have exactly the same SSL
configuration. You need the same protocol, ciphers and settings for client
verification.
If you mix things, Apache httpd will detect it and return a special response code,
421 Misdirected Request, to the client.
I have never seen this before so it came as a surprise to me. I’ll reach out to Chillidog to see if they have any insights.
I’m with chillidog I raised a ticket, working now for me
Do you know what they did so I can ask them to do the same thing for me?
Didnt say why its just working, I just added the the reason for the issue in the ticket
