Hello! Please, I need your help.
In my droplet Ubuntu with Apache and Tomcat, I config 000-default.conf to redirect my domain.com from port 80 to tomcat 8080 as below:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/
</VirtualHost>
Works fine and the browser show me tomcat’s default page. But… I would like redirect to my JSF project (tomcat -> webapps). So I tried:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/MyProject/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/MyProject/
</VirtualHost>
or
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass /MyProject http://localhost:8080/MyProject/
ProxyPassReverse /MyProject http://localhost:8080/MyProject/
</VirtualHost>
So, the browser load my login project page, but does not load the CSS, images or JSF componets. Just a simple white page, with fields to input my user, password and a button.
When I click in the button to login, the response is a error.
Note: if I complete the browser URL mydomain.com/MyProject works. But if I change the config to ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/MyProject
the page not works. What I wrote above happens.
Tks for your assistance.

Hi @fsadvisors,
In my experience what you are trying to achieve should be done in Tomcat rather than in Apache
This is how it should look like and then in your TomCat config, you’ll need to redirect it to use the /MyProject UR rather than using Apache for it.
