Yeah you can't have a wildcard record in Tomcat. Another reason for Apache (or better yet Nginx :-) )
Anyhow, to solve it you need to have a host container (as you have) with a fixed domain, say "tomcat.mydomain.com". Then in Apache you have the wildcard domain and forward all requests to that *.mydomain.com to tomcat.mydomain.com, like; proxy / ajp://tomcat.mydomain.com:8009 If you want to keep the localhost domain for tomcat you can also simply set the defaulthost in Tomcat. Then in apache you would still use the; proxy / ajp://localhost:8009 string.
