[users@httpd] Proxy problems when using subdirectory

[H Plato]

I’m having problems getting a reverse proxy to work as a subdirectory. Using 
the following configuration, Apache can full proxy an internal site:

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.50:80>
        ServerName www.domain.com
        DocumentRoot /data/www/www
        ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/www_error_log
        TransferLog /var/log/apache2/www_access_log

        <Directory "/">
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
                AllowOverride AuthConfig
                Order allow,deny
                Allow from all
                AllowOverride All
                Require all granted
        </Directory> 

       ProxyRequests Off
       ProxyPass / http://192.168.0.51:80/ 
       ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.0.51:80/ 
       ServerAlias www.proxy.domain.com
       ServerName proxy.domain.com
        
</VirtualHost>

However, when I change the proxy statements to use a subdomain:

       ProxyPass /a/ http://192.168.0.51:80/ 
       ProxyPassReverse /a/ http://192.168.0.51:80/ 

 then I get inconsistent results. Any link on the internal site that has root 
link (i.e.. href=“/docs” ) none of these are proxied to /a/docs. Any link with 
a relative link (i.e. href=“docs”) works.

I’m using Ubuntu 14.04.1 with  Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server built:   Jul 22 
2014 14:36:38

I’ve been struggling with this for days, so any ideas or help would be greatly 
appreciated.
