AWX installation (17.1.0 on RHEL 9) was successful and GUI was accessible with http (port 80).  
Have obtained Server Certificate and CA certificates from the team and modified the inventory file . Running “ansible-playbook -i inventory install.yml” is also successful. But after this change unable to access the GUI console. Tried with port 80 (http) and 443(https) both of them are not working.

I have also checked and verified the certificate using openssl commands and they look fine .

I’m expecting at least the server should respond to http and display the login page.

The parameters that I updated in inventory file were  
host\_port\_ssl=443  
ssl\_certificate , ssl\_certificate\_key

# docker ps -a

I had to revert these changes and run the install.yml again so that the console is accessible at least through http
