Well...
1- I delete the "Directory" section from httpd.conf file.
2- I add "JkMount  /Andromeda worker1" to the virtual host.
3- I add dynamic content to index.jsp page
So I proved the content is served by Tomcat. But I have the same problem: I
cannot view the content of protected section of my web application through
Apache web server.

If I access directly to Tomcat (skipping httpd), I can see the protected
content.

Access log in httpd is:
