I'm trying to setup Apache as a reverse proxy for a domain-name. It should redirect to an application running on a Apache Tomcat server

i'm using the following configuration:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName sub.domain.com
    ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/application/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/application/
    ProxyPreserveHost On
</VirtualHost>

However when I go to http://sub.domain.com it results in an endless loop of http redirects. It also automatically adds the subdirectory to the url. http://sub.domain.com changes in http://sub.domain.com/application/

Does anyone know how to solve this?

I think you probably want to disable ProxyPreserveHost as it keeps passing the old host, which unless you have a good reason to do so, isn't recommended.
