.htaccess not working while accessed via SSL/HTTPS in Apache2 - php

Question

I have a problem with .htaccess configuration. My webserver is Apache2, and my website was coded by PHP. But, I have some trouble with .htaccess.
While I'm accessing it via non-ssl (http://mywebsite.dev), my .htaccess was work. I use .htaccess for URL Rewrite and handling error by custom template. But, when I access it via SSL (https://mywebsite.dev), for Index page was work. But, when I access https://mywebsite.dev/page/about, it's display 404 Not Found (displaying default 404 Not Found page, not my custom page. It's mean, my .htaccess code not load).
For my URL structure, it was http://mywebsite.dev/?load=page&page=about. If I access http://mywebsite.dev/page/about, it works. But, not via SSL. What is problem? Btw, my /etc/apache2/sites-available/website.conf code is:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mydomain.com
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/website/
<Directory /var/www/html/website>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
# LogLevel info ssl:warn
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log

#Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
</VirtualHost>
And, my .htaccess code is:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^page/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ index.php?load=page&page=$1 [NC]
ErrorDocument 404 /public/404.html
I'm developing it with in Windows using Laragon. And for Production env is: Ubuntu 16, PHP 7, and Apache2. Thanks.
Sorry for grammar mistakes, or you don't understand what I mean. Thank you very much was reading my question :)

Answer 1

The line <VirtualHost *:80> tells apache that this configuration only applies for traffic coming on all interfaces (*) but only on the port 80 (:80). The AllowOverride All isn't applied on https (port 443) since it doesn't match.
To fix this, you need an other virtual host, <VirtualHost *:443>. You can either duplicate the content in the two virtual hosts or use an include, see this server fault answer.
