1. You know that "api-lb" and "lb-api" above are two different host names? 2. What HTTP response code is send to client to perform the redirection? (What is displayed by access log? Or by "network" monitoring tool in browser. What are actual responses to perform the redirection). Some response codes used for redirects allow the browser to change POST to GET, some do not. See the HTTP protocol specification for details. https://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/Specifications Is redirect performed by a single response, or there are several redirect responses in a chain, A -> B -> C/ ? 3. Actual configuration? (For someone else to reproduce the issue or to match your tale to their configs).
