[EDIT] It turns out my issue was related to the firewall blocking traffic from 127.0.0.1. It's not related to the OP's question apparently.

I wonder, is your certificate still valid when you are trying to renew ?
I might be totally off, but I think the way it works, is HTTP validation works over HTTPS as long as your current certificate is still valid, otherwise, it'll try and use http. But if you force redirect that would bounce back to https which is no longer valid.

Just a thought.
