Ouch. That's a little like responding to someone who asked the question "I'd like a glass of water please" with the response "Take a look at these three advanced chemistry books." There is nothing inherently wrong with the initial config setup posted by Mohammad. The question is to figure out where the redirect is coming from and why it isn't getting rewritten by ProxyPassReverse. There is a good chance the redirect is coming from some javascript or something similar on the back-end that can't be rewritten at the HTTP header level. So your first step should be to look at exactly what content the back-end is returning in response to the requests and figure out why they trigger a redirect at the browser. If you need help doing this, people on this list can probably suggest some tracing tools.
