If your squid.conf is set up to accelerate using internally URLs pointing
directly to the backend server then this is what the redirector will see.

You then have two options

a) Clean up your reverse proxy setup to not use the backend server
address. See numerous posts on the subject mentioning /etc/hosts etc..

b) Modify the redirector to rewrite back to the public URL when sending
the redirect.
