Hi Gabriel,

thanks for your quick response. 
Maybe I have to add some information so you can pbb. help me.

My app server is a tomcat 5.5 configured with just a http/Port 80 connector. 
The server is reachable from local network with its hostname.
The reverse proxy is configured to an external address (different from 
hostname) using https.
So I guess configuring the tomcat to use the external names for host / port 
would lead to problems with requests from local network.

Reverse Proxy configuration looks like that:
ProxyPass /myApp http://serverHostname/myApp
ProxyPassReverse /myApp http://serverHostname/myApp

Thanks again!

Jan

Make sure your app server is correctly configured to return the
font-end proxy values when you call:
-request.getServerName()
-request.getServerPort()
