No https access to WebGUI

[newbieuser1]

Hello,

I am not able to access my webGUI via https link, only http. On System->Advanced->Admin Access I have selected HTTPS and the self-generated SSL GUI Default certificate is there in the dropdown menu (and in the Certificates section). The GUI web server is listening on the https and http ports. When I was first setting up my static LAN address, I selected 'No' for https, if that makes any difference. Also wondering if I just need to (learn how to) create a new self-signed certificate maybe?

I am a complete beginner and struggling to understand how to fix this and what to do next - any help or guidance will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance! (And to those who have already tried to help)

@newbieuser1 so you can access the gui on http, what exactly happens when you go to https:// you get an error it times out - what?

@johnpoz - I get a time out error. I went to the console menu, chose 11 and restarted the GUI and now the https link works....Don't know what was causing the issue before.

Any alerts/errors shown in the gui when you logged back in?

Anything in the system logs?
