Apache – How to use a different path name in ProxyPass than the Tomcat context name

You should be able to achieve the result you want by using virtual hosting. Also it's a good idea to pass the requests to tomcat via the AJP protocol instead of HTTPS. Try adding this to the Apache configuration

NameVirtualHost *:443

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName app1.host
    ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/app1/
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName app2.host
    ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/app2/
</VirtualHost>

If you haven't changed the default server settings for Tomcat this should work just as it is. Otherwise make sure to specify the AJP port that is configured in Tomcat's conf/server.xml file. There should be a line similar to this:

<Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" />

Make sure that you have the mod_proxy and mod_proxy_ajp modules loaded in Apache configuration, this may vary depending on your Apache installation. Also remove any previously configured 'ProxyPass / ...' lines as they will interfere with the new configuration. Hope this works for you.

I figured it out.

Add this to the VHost configuration:

ProxyPassReverseCookiePath /webapp /
