Hiawatha version: 8,7
Operating System: SUSE 10.1

Hello,

I am trying to get ssl certificate and force to use https. I follow the instructions here http://www.hiawatha-webserver.org/howto/bindings here a part of my configuration file
Binding {
Port=443
SSLcertFile = /srv/etc/serverkey.pem
}

VirtualHost {
Hostname = 0.0.0.0
WebsiteRoot = srv/var/www
RequireSSL=yes
}

When i restart the server,I can not connect with https but can connect as i used to. What can be the problem?

If you don't need HTTP, you can remove that binding.
