You should look at the mod_rewrite rules. It's pretty obvious that the problem lies with the url rewriting.
Either the reverse proxy is wrongly configured or the apache webserver.
Actually it's probably best to follow the entire chain. Remember that you can active the rewrite modules logging as well.
A small thing like using a different directory will make the rewrite rules invalid.

That's a script that enables the mod_rewrite module in apache - apache2 enable module.

a2enmod rewriteAh, so the problem was just that the mod_rewrite module wasn't enabled in Apache.
It's the LoadModule entries in the httpd.conf file that tells Apache which modules to load. Using a2enmod is mostly for convenience.

Right, coming from doing this in Fedora regularly, it didn't occur to me that there was a manual step as Fedora defaults to turning that on.
