You have something installed that is configured to require https and
is generating an http redirect.  I will guess it is in
/etc/apache2/conf.d/ somewhere.  This is probably in conjunction with
SSLRequireSSL and probably uses RedirectMatch or similar from that
family of redirect commands.

  grep -r -i SSLRequireSSL /etc/apache2/
  grep -r -i redirect /etc/apache2/

You can verify this effect with wget (and other commands).  Use the -S
option to see the headers.

  wget -O/dev/null -S http://your.hostname.or.ip/path/path

The "Location:" header is the redirect.

You can read the documentation on Apache redirect here:
