Hi Timo.
i don't know ajp protocol, but I have a similar configuration.
this is my configuration that work fine with apache, mod_proxy as frontend and a tomcat 6 with SSL (8443) as backend.
u don't set the end point (spike/) but only the ProxyPass. I'm using another modules, also.
Please check my configuration. I hope it can help you.
Read this tutorial, it's very usefull: http://www.apachetutor.org/admin/reverseproxies
Cheers,
Mauri

Hi,
I have a problem with our reverse proxy. I asked this question to the
tomcat-users mailinglist, too, but no one could help me and I am
absolutely stuck with this problem. So, I hope some of the httpd
experts here, may have an idea:
Our configuration is a Apache 2.2 web server, acting as a reverse
proxy for Tomcat 6. This is the configuration:
ServerName it.localhost.de
ProxyPass / ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/spike/
ProxyPassReverse / ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/spike/
ProxyPassReverseCookiePath /spike /
(This is the configuration in the VirtualHost entry for port 80. There
is a second VHost for SSL with SSLProxyEngine On and SSLEngine On).
As you can see, the webapp is hosted under ContextPath /spike but
available through the proxy via /. Everything works fine, until the
webapp sends an redirect to HTTPS. This is done via SpringSecurity.
The problem is, that the ProxyPassReverse directive doesn't catch the
ContextPath and converts it, if it includes the complete address.
These are the logs from the web browser:
GET http://it.localhost.de/users/65 => 302 =>
https://it.localhost.de/spike/users/65
1) Why does the ProxyPassReverse doesn't convert the /spike back to /
in https://it.localhost.de/spike/users/65? Is it because the Header
isn't relative? The protocol is still AJP and so the Proxy should know
how to convert it, right?
1a) If so, how could the webapp switch from http to https and vice
versa, when not able to send the absolute address with a new protocol?
After this, I tried to set additional ProxyPassReverse directives:
ProxyPassReverse / https://it.localhost.de/spike/
ProxyPassReverse / http://it.localhost.de/spike/
This time, the /spike/ is converted to /, but the two directives leads
to an infintive loop of redirects to
http://it.localhost.de/<REQUEST-URI>.
2) How can I stop this loop? or better
3) How can I configure the ProxyPassReverse correctly?
Thank you very much for any help
Timo

Problem is that the "ajp_unmarshal_response: Header[0] [Location] =

the response, so that the next request will lead to the
doubled-context-path: ajp://127.0.0.1:9091/spike/spike/users/3.
