First Rule: Virtualmin is always right Second Rule: If (you think that) Virtualmin is wrong read First Rule. Conclusion: Virtualmin was ok; it was my sister who modified miniserv.conf port from 10000 to 443
I'm glad you figured that out! That would have been a tricky one to troubleshoot :-)
Have a good weekend!
