Problem:
Hi,
When I run the command foreman-installer --foreman-server-ssl-port 7443 I get the following error:

3 errors were detected.
Please address the errors and re-run the installer to ensure the system is properly configured.
Failing to do so is likely to result in broken functionality.

I have checked the file /etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman-ssl.conf and it has changed the line <VirtualHost *:443> to <VirtualHost *:7443> but I don’t understand why it keeps checking port 443.

Expected outcome:
Running Foreman on a port other than 443
