Issue Unwanted 301 forwarding for aliases

[Movak]

Server operating system version

Ubuntu 18.04..6 LTS

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.69 Update #3

I have several aliases pointing to the same App. I have the "Redirect with the HTTP 301 code" option disabled, yet it is still 301 forwarding to the main domain.

I have deleted and re-crerated the alias but no change.
Does anyone have any idea

Hello, @Movak . What app is deployed under the primary domain name? I am asking because there are domain-specific applications, such as WordPress for example, where the domain name is hard-coded.

It is WordPress, but it worked correctly before I changed the primary domain name. Currently, when I hit the server with one of the alias domains it does the following;
- Redirects due to code in the .htaccess file
- mysteriously redirects with a 301 that is not coded in .htaccess.

The main point is that it used to work, and now it doesn't

Thank you for the update. The redirection most likely occurs on site-level rather than because the Plesk settings. Still, what else you might check is whether there are any additional directives in Subscriptions > Hosting & DNS > Apache & nginx.

Hello, @Movak .
Could you please also check the redirect using CURL, with command like

curl -I https://youralias.com

. The most tricky moment with 301 redirect - that it's a permanent redirect, so it could be cached by your browser.
