What does the error log on the IBM HTTP Server say ? 
What is the access log entry for that particular request on the IBM HTTP Server 
? 
Is the request passed by the IBM HTTP Server to the WebSphere application 
server ?? Please verify the logs of the application server also. 
I assume you are using the WebSphere plugin ? I have not used that plugin for 
several years, but I seem to remember that it had its own log. What does that 
log say ?

I suspect that you have may problem with the WebSphere plugin configuration. 
Your reverse proxy is listening on one HTTP port, and the IBM HTTP server on 
another. I suspect that the IBM HTTP Server does not intercept the request 
because the host:port it does not match what is defined in the plugin's 
configuration. 

The plugin is a bear to configure until you get a grip. The configuration file 
contains XML - you need to understand the structure of the XML, and the 
dependencies between XML elements. I think what you need to do is add a new 
VirtualHostGroup next to the existing one:

<VirtualHostGroup Name="reverse_proxy">
  <VirtualHost Name="*:80" /> 
  <VirtualHost Name="*:443" /> 
</VirtualHostGroup>

(if that does not work, try to add also <VirtualHost Name="*" />)

Then you need to add a new route that associates the relevant server cluster 
and URI group with this new virtual host group, for example:

  <Route ServerCluster="server1_Cluster" UriGroup="server1_Cluster_URIs" 
VirtualHostGroup="reverse-proxy" /> 

Should everything else fail, please contact your friendly IBM representative.

Yes You are right in that. Requests are indeed proxied to the other IBM HTTP 
server. I get the same from the access logs of the same. However I am getting 
the HTTP 404 in the logs of that webserver. But theis is not the case when I 
directly communicate with it or without using the [P} option it works fine. 
What could be the problem? Can I increase the log level to solve the problem?

The entry in the rewrite log that says "go-ahead with proxy request", indicates 
that the request is indeed proxied through to mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com:7003. Now 
what you need to do is check the logs on mgtpdma3.rau.valmet.com:7003 to see if 
the request actually came through. If it did, what was the URL requested, and 
do the error logs say anything that would give a clue about why it returned a 
404 ?
