http to https causing redirect loop

Question

I wish to forward all visitors to my site to use HTTPS instead of HTTP. Whatever they request, I want to server over HTTPS.

I've tried adding this to my .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

But it just causes a redirect loop. I'm guessing RewriteCond isn't functioning as expected?

This should work :

RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,NC,R,L]
