I have 2 web Debian servers, a frontend accepting request from port 80 and a backend via proxy from the frontend.
What I want to do is have a many different URLs going the backend server with virtual hosts.
Here is the frontend Apache setting
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName dev.example.com
ProxyPass / http://192.168.144.100:80/
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.144.100:80/
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName sandbox.example.com
ProxyPass / http://192.168.144.100:80/
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.144.100:80/
</VirtualHost>
And here is the backend Apache setting
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
ServerName dev.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/dev/
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/example.com/dev/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
ServerName sandbox.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/sandbox/
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/example.com/sandbox/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
When I go to dev.example.com or sandbox.example.com, it takes me to the default /var/www files.
Basically, I want the ability to run multiple virtual hosts on the backend server.
Thanks for your help.

How about modifying your front end settings like this? And you don't need virtual host settings in backend.
