Piwiks tracks visited https URLs as http #5312

Hi! I'm running Piwik 2.3.0 on Apache HTTP behind an Nginx SSL Proxy. This is working fine and without the issues reported in the forums etc.

I use Piwik to track visits on a few websites that are also secured via SSL. All non-secured requests are redirected by Varnish, which means that no http:// adresses should reach Piwik or the tracked website.

Nevertheless, if an SSL-secured website is visited, Piwik shows the URL as normal http:// in the visitors log and I can't find the cause for this.

I already enabled $GLOBALS['PIWIK_TRACKER_DEBUG'] to have a look at the sent data:

action_name:vanished-site-title
idsite:3
rec:1
r:167255
h:16
m:5
s:28
url:https://www.vanished.site/page/
urlref:https://www.vanished.site/

realp:0
wma:1
dir:0
fla:1
java:1
gears:0
ag:0
cookie:1
res:1920x1080
gt_ms:1336

This clearly shows that https:// was used to visit the page, but the visitor log presents the URL as http://www.vanished.site/page/.

Is this probably a bug or am I missing something here?
Do you need further details?

Thank you!
