Do not reply to all. Just to the list please.

OK. So you're doing the following:

 ssl-> LB:8443 http-> HTTPD:8443 http-> Tomcat:8443 https?-> ContentSrv

What are the content servers, virtual hosts in Tomcat?
Or do you have some kind of proxy application running inside Tomcat?

If you are *not* using the http connector on 8080, comment it and the
AJP one out of your config please.

If there's nothing in the Tomcat logs, how do you know that the request
is being sent at all?

What method are you using to connect HTTPD to Tomcat? mod_jk or
mod_proxy (or something else)?

Can you enable logs and a status worker to check on what happens when
the connection dies?
