I have a situation where I want to call an Tomcat deployed Spring

What's the motivation, here? It may allow for more flexible solutions.
Are you trying to use non-8080, or are you trying to use non-secure, or
both?
So I resorted to creating a proxy server using Apache2 Web Server (along
side the Tomcat application server).
Unfortunately when I call the app using name1.domain.com/app/login it times
out and fails.
Following are the configuration for Apache2 and Tomcat:
In server.xml (Tomcat V8)
<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000"
redirectPort="443"
proxyName="name1.domain.
<http://qadat.qfls.idealab.unical.it/>com"
proxyPort="80"
/>
httpd.conf (under conf/ in Apache2)
...
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
...
ServerName name1.domain. <http://qadat.qfls.idealab.unical.it/>com:80
<http://qadat.qfls.idealab.unical.it/>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPass /app/login http://localhost:8080/app/login
<http://localhost:8080/qadat/login>
ProxyPassReverse /app/login http://localhost:8080/app/login
<http://localhost:8080/qadat/login>
</VirtualHost>
Looks good so far, except I would put trailing / symbols on here:
ProxyPass /app/login/ http://localhost:8080/app/login/
ProxyPassReverse /app/login/ http://localhost:8080/app/login/
Your email program seems to have put links into hostnames that makes
this a little difficult to interpret.
To note that on the local machine tomcat returns the app through
http://localhost:8080/app/login <http://localhost:8080/qadat/login>
How to make the app requests proxied so that name1.domain.
<http://qadat.qfls.idealab.unical.it/>com/app/login works and calls the
localhost:8080/app/login to return the Tomcat Spring app
To note that DocumentRoot was added and then removed and that the app
resides in webapps/ROOT
If you are using the ROOT web app, then you should be proxying / and not
/app/login/ (unless you really expect to proxy exactly one URL). Is the
app called 'app' or 'qadat'?
If you want to refer to your application as /app/ then you should deploy
it at webapps/app
What URL are you actually typing into the browser URL bar?
