Hi Tony, I did have some ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse settings in the global content and required proxy modules are enabled.
At the end I solve it by using rewrite rule inside the old virtualhost: RewriteRule ^/app_test(/.*)?$ http://app_prod.example.com [R] It is working fine now. For the weird proxy error, is it possible caused by my ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse rules in the global content? Should I really move them into the virtualhost container?
