You're using the unreleased, but highly experimental and potentially
dangerous version 6.3.7!?

What do you expect Tomcat to do with the prefix?

You have configured* the proxy to expect Tomcat to have either tom.war
or a directory deployed in tomcat/webapps called 'tom'.

e.g
 path/to/tomcat/webapps/tom.war

or
 path/to/tomcat/webapps/tom/

"localhost/tom" isn't valid hostname, nothing surprising about that.
