Your application or htaccess file are probably set to redirect to http. This can happen when the installation was done not using https, the application then assumes it should always be on http.

I would check your htaccess and your site configuration settings and change it to using https instead.

I agree with @GOT you've probably got a redirect set up in .htaccess or in the application itself. Let us know if you're able to identify the cause of the issue!

Thanks!
