The code I pointed you at is how you set the secure flag in your PHP
code. If you're not doing it in your PHP code, it's not a PHP question.

But I think you need to learn how a load balancer works. It does not
generally change flags in cookies, amongst other things. But that's
well off topic in a PHP newsgroup.
