You need to use [OR] clause between your conditions to fire your rule for any of the 2 conditions:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.ranglerz.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

not working, showing error that www.ranglerz.com redirected you too many times. – Kashif Latif Sep 13 '17 at 10:30
Did you clear your browser cache? If yes then change `R=301` to `R=308` in above rule and then test in Chrome dev tool with **caching disabled** and check in Networking tab what are 301/302/308 redirect URLs you get there. – anubhava Sep 13 '17 at 10:31
same issue with 308 – Kashif Latif Sep 13 '17 at 10:41

It is a bit strange because `RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on [OR]` is exactly same as `RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]` Anyway I have updated code to reflect it now. You may accept the answer if it all worked for you. – anubhava Sep 13 '17 at 13:38

DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R]

The above code will do what you want excellently , just put it in main directory .htaccess file.

Moreover , If you need also to force every site.com to be www.site.come , just replace the flowing line in the above code :

RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R]

with this:

RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R]
