The first request in the logs you posted was a request for /favicon.ico which didn't match any proxypass rule from the configuration datagroup. The second request was for /bpso/dar/ which is not configured in the datagroup either.

 

 

For the first proxypass rule you listed in your original post, you have:

 

 

ProxyPass /upso1/dar/ http://10.38.32.35/upso1/dar/

 

 

Do you really want the Host header rewritten from what the client requested to 10.38.32.35 for every request to /upso1/dar/? Are you load balancing the request? If so, the server probably wouldn't be configured for another IP address it's not listening on.

 

 

If you do want the host header rewritten to the IP address, then the first rule you have listed in the proxypass datagroup should do that. Can you make a request to the VIP with a URI starting with /mpso/dar/ and see if it matches the first rule you have listed in the proxypass datagroup? The request should then have the Host header rewritten to 10.132.32.36 and be sent to the dar_mpso pool.
