How to redirect https request to http in magento?

Question

My magento site is loading well on http request, http://my-magento-site.com. But when I try lo load using https://my-magento-site.com It redirect to an error page, https://my-magento-site.com/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi . How do I prevent this, and redirect to http request ?

I tried to add this code on my root .htaccess file but not redirect,

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

How do I fix this ?

You should never redirect from https to http. Fix the issue instead. — Charlotte Dunois, Sep 09 '16 at 10:28

If .htaccess Rewrite rule is not working then you can set this by magento settings. Goto >> system >> configuration >> web{under general tab} You will find unsecure and secure tabs. Write Base URL http://my-magento-site.com in both URLs. You will always redirect to http:// only
