how to make https work

You can rewrite the port in redirects using an iRule like this:

 
 when HTTP_RESPONSE {  
  
     Check if response is a redirect  
    if {[HTTP::is_redirect]}{  
  
        Replace port :444/ with / 
       HTTP::header replace Location [string map -nocase {:444/ /} [HTTP::header value Location]]  
    }  
 } 
 

If the response content contains references to the 444 port, you could rewrite those using a blank stream profile and the following iRule. You may also need to add a custom HTTP profile with Response Chunking set to Rechunk. Check the STREAM::expression wiki page (Click here) for details.

 
 when HTTP_RESPONSE { 
  
     Disable the stream filter by default 
    STREAM::disable 
  
     Check if response type is text 
    if {[HTTP::header value Content-Type] contains "text"}{ 
  
        Replace :444/ with / 
       STREAM::expression "@:444/@/@" 
  
        Enable the stream filter for this response only 
       STREAM::enable 
    } 
 }
