I wanted to reverse proxy a web service from my tomcat server using apache web server. I have modified the httpd.conf
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.
So it took some time but I figured out the way to do it. There is one more module which needs to be loaded. This is what the httpd.conf looks like
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
AllowOverride none
Require all denied
ProxyPass /ROOT http://localhost:8080/ROOT
ProxyPassReverse /ROOT http://localhost:8080/ROOT
This works for sure. :)
