Laravel redirect all http to https - laravel

Question

I have a website in Laravel which i switched over to https a while ago. I have succeeded to redirect all secure non-www (https://) URL's to www (https://www.) variants with the help of other posts, but am getting stuck on getting both non-secure variants (http://) and (http://www.) redirected to the secure www variants (https://www.)
When you call for the non-secure, www version:
http://www.apk-vervaldatum.nl,
It redirects to:
https://www.apk-vervaldatum.nl/public/https://www.apk-vervaldatum.nl
When you call for the non-secure, non-www version:
http://apk-vervaldatum.nl,
It first redirects to:
https://www.apk-vervaldatum.nl
Then redirects to:
https://www.apk-vervaldatum.nl/public/https://www.apk-vervaldatum.nl
My htaccess in the root folder looks is:
*Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]*
My htacces in public folder looks is:
*Options -MultiViews -Indexes
RewriteEngine On # Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]*

Answer 1

Here you have method how to enforce using HTTPS
Go to AppServiceProvider:
namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\URL;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
public function boot()
{
URL::forceScheme('https'); // add this
}
}
Another approach is change is .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Good luck!

Answer 2

your .htaccess should be :
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Start with www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>
