It looks like the cookie should be secure.
Is there any change that you used this browser to access this server;
then reconfigured the server to add the "secure" options and reloaded
the config; and then refreshed the page in the browser?
If so, that would explain it -- you have to arrange that the browser
removes the previous session cookie (for example, by closing the browser
or just by deleting the cookie). If the browser presents a cookie,
the server will not send a new one.
And it is only the new one that will be marked "Secure" or not.
Good luck with it,
