Answer 1

您应该改用mod_proxy的ProxyPass ：

ProxyPass / http://localhost:8082/my/

Answer 2

You need to install the application as your "ROOT" application on tomcat. Tomcat will automatically make that .war the base URL when you land on tomcat. To do this, just rename your "my.war" to "ROOT.war" and redeploy it.

Note, on some Tomcat instances, there will be a pre-installed default "ROOT" application for managing some Tomcat settings and apps via a web UI. Deploying your own ROOT.war will naturally replace this utility.
