Hi Ivan,

From looking at your configuration options, the only concern I have to understand what specific address you are trying to use to access this Jira site:

www.jira.example.com or  jira.example.com ?  

I see there is a serveralias there, but my concern is to understand what URL the end user uses here.  It is possible that the Tomcat configuration in Jira  would need to be tweaked to understand this slightly different URL is being used for the site instead or just jira.example.com

 

Can you share with us more details about the specific error you are getting here?

1. Is the redirect just not working, or is it much worse that Jira won't start up?
2. What version of Jira is this?
3. What version of Apache are you using?
4. Do you see an error when trying to load the Jira site via this proxied connector?

Are you following an existing KB guide?   Could you let me know which one you're using?  I would recommend Securing your Atlassian applications with Apache using SSL
