Simple iRule HTTPS redirect in F5 LTM v12.1.2 (Build 1.0.271)

Trying to use a HTTPS redirect on a VS but I'm stuck.

We would like to redirect https://mysite.com towards https://www.mysite.com

What I have tried so far;

when HTTP_REQUEST { 
if { "https://[HTTP::host]" equals "mysite.com"} { 
  HTTP::redirect "https://www.mysite.com"} 
  }

But this does not seem to work. Tried google and searching on the forum, but still stuck.

Can anyone help me?

    you don't need to specify the protocol for [HTTP::host], try this:

    when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    if {[HTTP::host] equals "mysite.com"} { 
        HTTP::redirect "https://www.mysite.com"
    } 
}
