This is something like a bug report but maybe also like a small request to help users not put themselves into silly situations as I did.

## Steps to reproduce:

- Install SSL certificate under the configuration of the webserver on the gateway management page
- Select the option for “Force Secure Redirect”
- Delete the SSL certificates
- witness the glory of not being able to connect a designer session.

## Simple fix

- reinstall SSL certificates
- deselect the Force Redirect option
- delete SSL certificates
- things behave normally and connections are available.

## Proposed retooling

- automatically deselect the force redirect for the user when they delete SSL certificates.

Not a large amount of time was wasted on this, but it was a bit of a nuisance for me (an ignorant user) that seems like it could be avoided with very little effort.

Apologies if this is a silly thing to report.
