are you sure that is the only one gunicorn instance running in your env ?
if yes, do you access web2py using 127.0.0.1:62019 ?
if remote_port is set to 62019, then the instance you're accessing is the
right one. If it's instead 80, something else is running web2py that
reports remote_port as 80.

web2py looks for remote_port to look for the parameters_xxx.py file, not
http_x_forwarded port.
What does inspect and "trust" is instead http_x_forwarded_proto to tell if
the request is an https one (meaning that even if the "lowest-middleware"
is not doing any SSL secured transmission, if there is that header it means
that on the layers on top (probably nginx in your setup) the connection is
secure). This is a pretty standard behaviour in any piece of software
working on reverse proxies because there is no other way for the "lower
tiers" to know if the connection is secured or not from the "upper tiers".
the relevant piece of code is
HTTPS_SCHEMES = set(('https', 'HTTPS'))
.....
request.is_https = env.wsgi_url_scheme in HTTPS_SCHEMES or \
request.env.http_x_forwarded_proto in HTTPS_SCHEMES
\
or env.https == 'on'
