traefik redirect http to https with PathPrefix

Question

I have nginx running in a container behind Traefik, and I'm trying to redirect any http to https using Traefik middleware.

If I browse to https://domain-name/website-name I can see my container, but if I browse to http://domain-name/website-name, I get a 404 error.

Below is my config file for website-name:

http:
  routers:
    entrypoints:
      - web
      - web-secure
    tls: true
    rule: "PathPrefix(`/website-name`)"
    middlewares:
      - "http-redirect"
    service: "website-name"

  middlewares:
    http-redirect:
      regex: "http://domain-name/(.*)"
      replacement: "https://domain-name/$1"
  
  services:
    website-name: 
      loadBalancer:
        servers:
          - url: http://website-name:80

Why won't http redirect to https with this setup? It only recognizes https.

For example if I change the http-redirect code to:

http-redirect:
  redirectRegex:
    regex: "https://domain-name/(.*)"
    replacement: "https://$1?test"

This works and redirects https://domain-name/website-name to https://domain-name/website-name?test, but for some reason http won't work.

http://domain-name/website-name gives me a 404 error. And, it is not a 404 error produced by nginx. So it is not even routing to the container.
