I've got the problem with SSL configuration on VPS.
Page works correctly via ip address but on the domain name i got "Error 503: Backend unavailable"
File configuration "/etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf":
ServerName volante-app.pl
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://54.38.53.74:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://54.38.53.74:8080/

1. I rebooted vps
2. I restarted apache
3. if I ping to domain name, I got response.
Page was working correctly via https about 2 hours but suddenly stopped (i didn't change configuration then)
on VPS is installed ubuntu 21.04
