Redirect HTTP to HTTPS and path using iRules not working

I'm able to configure the iRule to redirect the path from https://www.abc.com to https://www.abc.com/pageX.php. However I'm still having problem to redirect from HTTP request to HTTPS.

isn't it to just change http to https in HTTP::redirect command?

e.g.

 configuration

root@(ve11a)(cfg-sync Sync Failed)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) list ltm virtual bar
ltm virtual bar {
    destination 172.28.24.10:80
    ip-protocol tcp
    mask 255.255.255.255
    profiles {
        http { }
        tcp { }
    }
    rules {
        qux
    }
    source 0.0.0.0/0
    vs-index 13
}
root@(ve11a)(cfg-sync Sync Failed)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) list ltm rule qux
ltm rule qux {
    when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { [HTTP::path] eq "/" } {
    HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host]/pageX.php"
  }
}
}

 test

[root@ve11a:Active:In Sync] config  curl -I http://www.abc.com
HTTP/1.0 302 Found
Location: https://www.abc.com/pageX.php
