'apache not redirecting http to https

my configuration file for redirecting http to https is not working. I have tried different options found in StackOverflow Apache virtual host redirect http to https

plus external resources like https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-create-temporary-and-permanent-redirects-with-apache-and-nginx https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-rewrite-urls-with-mod-rewrite-for-apache-on-debian-10

the alias_mod and rewrite_mod are enabled (in the mods-enables folder) port 80 and 443 are enabled (in the ports.conf file) I have also tried with htacces in the project folder but I would rather not to use it

At the moment I have two conf files (one for the HTTP and the other for the https, as for default-guidelines conf files existing in the apache2 folder) The app works on BOTH https and HTTP but there is no redirect (not in the network in the development tools and I cannot get any info from the logs) The app has an internal redirect from "/" to the "/login" : I do not know if it can cause any issue

These are the conf files: 1- example.con

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
        ServerName example.com
        DocumentRoot /var/www/assets/eit_resource_manager_frontend/build

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

        RedirectMatch ^(.*)$ https://example.com$1

</VirtualHost>

2- example.ssl.conf

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
        <VirtualHost _default_:443>
                ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
                ServerName example.com
                DocumentRoot /var/www/assets/eit_resource_manager_frontend/build
               

                ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
                CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

                SSLEngine on

                <FilesMatch "\.(cgi|shtml|phtml|php)$">
                                SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
                </FilesMatch>
                <Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin>
                                SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
                </Directory>
    </VirtualHost>
</IfModule>
