Hi there,
After looking this over I've located the issue but haven't determined how to best implement the resolution.
The problem is that when folks access HTTP (via httpd-vhosts.conf) the configuration Rewrites the URL as https://www.yippyskippy.com/ClusterTester$1
When end-users bypass the HTTP configuration and go directly to HTTPS the httpd-ssl.conf file has been configured to expect that the Rewrite has already occurred and that the /ClusterTester$1 suffix already exists.
Because the original httpd-vhosts.conf Rewrite command is bypassed, the httpd-ssl.conf configuration tries to proxypass the incorrect URL string to the back-end Glassfish server resulting in the original error.
Now I'm trying to determine how/where to best place the Rewrite command (I'm assuming within the httpd-ssl.conf virtual hosts section) while still maintaining the redirect from HTTP to HTTPS.
As before, any input that would get me on the write path to resolution is highly appreciated.
