Hi there,

if I am reading this right, then what you describe and what the config
file you provide say, are different.

The config file says that if someone goes to http://example.com, you will
(almost always) redirect them to https://example.com:8080.

If someone goes to https://example.com, they will go to port 443. And
you have no listener for port 443 in the config file that you show.

Add a 443 listener-server block that does ssl and redirects to
https://example.com:8080. Or, probably, change the current 443
listener-server block to redirect to https://example.com:8080 instead
of to http://example.com.
