Where are you getting 404? Send us a screenshot.

Did you install a SSL? Use HTTPS only if you did.

[Neeraj0001]

Yes as @jaikrishna.t said don’t use https unless you have a SSL Cert which is trusted , I guess you have installed your own self signed cert , right ?

Self Signed Certificate is not a trusted SSL , Instead of that Use free LetEncrypt SSL which is absolutely free

Not working, and always keep getting 404

Hold on. One issue at a time.

For starters, installing an SSL certificate affects whether your website supports HTTPS (without errors) or not. It doesn’t affect 404 errors or anything like that.

I just tried to open your site. I don’t get a 404 error, but I do see a message saying that WordPress crashed. So please try to reinstall it.

[MD2709]

I managed to install WP.
It’s working now.

But I can’t install Really Simple SSL in WP?!
