IMHO it is part of the application logic, not part of the webserver used
for servicing the requests. The webserver just passes the protocol
information to the application. (MAY be, somebody can write an apache
mod for faking this protocol information. Writing this: MAY be
mod_rewrite with it's endless magic could even do this. I think(!), it's
just the content of some environment variables you need to set…)
Plan A) find a config option in your application for telling the
"external" URL used to access it
PLAN B) find the source of your application and fix the source
"may the source be with you" ☺
PLAN C) read about mod_rewrite, if it is possible to lie about
the used protocol (by setting/changing some ENV variables)
PLAN D) use pound for proxying HTTPS to HTTPS …
PLAN E) do not use pound at all - if you need load balancing,
check out LVS (linux virtual server) or check Linux
iptables -m cluster (load balancing w/o load balancer)
… or re-order/extend the plans as you want ;-)
