The hosting company has the redir set up. It's needed for the other 4 sites that I host on the account. So, I can't remove it. How do I get nopcommerce to stop redirecting itself, as that is what is triggering the infinite loop.
Note, I went back and looked, and I asked this exact question a year ago. Like... Jan 3rd 2018.
Hence, my annoyance at this. A.Fucking.Year. Not 2 weeks, not 2 months. A YEAR.

I went through this, step by step... And I even deleted, instead of commenting out, any Rule in the web.config files in the entire hosting related to any kind of redirect.
I still get "Problem Redirecting page" errors in firefox, over it doing a really weird infinite loop. I have to then go into the database and in the store table set "SslEnabled" = 0 to just get the store to show the main page. It breaks the admin area even, as soon as you hit save with SSL Enabled checked. just goes boom. And, I checked, I can pull up a non-ssl version of the domain, so I think that I have the SSL redirect turned off. The store application breaks when turning ssl on... even with a brand new ssl certificate.
This leads me to believe, that it's the store application breaking the site. Thoughts?
Lastly with infinite redirect loop, if your host is handling the redirection. Remove any web server (nginx, apache, iis) configuration you have that uses a 301 redirect from port 80 to https, then try the finger trick again.

Michieal,
Congrats on the broken leg! Kidding, bummer.
As a guy who has little to no experience with GoDaddy and their hosting, humour me - unless it becomes annoying. Do you pay for hosting and access it via something like cPanel? Thus your site is hosted on a Windows Server controlled by GoDaddy? Or, do you host on a different platform and have your domain configured to point to your other host? Could you paste your DNS configuration for your site here? I.e. A Records, CNAME records which I presume are on GoDaddy. (If you don't mind, you can obfuscate the IPs if you are worried).
Additionally, it may not be much comfort but when I tried to look at GoDaddy SSL I came across this:
---------------------
Hire an SSL Expert
We can install, maintain and update SSL certificates on most sites hosted with GoDaddy. We’ll also fix mixed content warnings, so you don’t have to.
Call 1-866-878-5265 for pricing and details about our hassle-free Easy SSL Service.
----------------------
I realize it's probably not the route you would ideally like to go - but the option exists if you have a few greenbacks to spare.

At the moment, I don't have the extra 200 bucks to spare on them doing the SSL (especially for a broken site), so I have been doing LetsEncrypt for the SSL. GoDaddy Windows hosting uses Plesk Admin (Odin revision, I believe).

I hope that the formatting stays, it's garbled if it doesn't. *chuckles*
On the broken leg, I'm "insane" because I embraced it as a "totally new experience" and on a positive note, I'm healing like I was 20 years younger. :D
GoDaddy hosts it, it's on their servers... I have a decent amount of control...
There's a hand full of TXT type entries, mostly to do with google and LetsEncrypt's CertifyTheWeb's Godaddy API access (which, doesn't exactly work, I still have to go in and manually install the SSL - found out the hard way.)
From what I can tell in the Domain DNS stuff, it's pretty straight forward, and not much is out of place.
