Subdirectory frontend to root backend

Hello

I’m looking for some help with figuring out the best way to handle routing URLs with subdirectories to applications hosted on the root of a webserver.

Say I have URL domainx.com/path1, I want users to be sent to an application on server web2 that is running an application in the root of tomcat.

If I use the below config it will send users to that tomcat server but will direct users to 192.168.0.51:8080/path1 not 192.168.0.51:8080 If I move the application to 192.168.0.51:8080/path1 this will work. But what if the application can’t be renamed or relocated. What is the best way to accomplish this?

Thanks for any help in advance!

 	acl url_domainx.com hdr(host) -i domainx.com
	acl url_domainx.com-path1 path_beg -i /path1
	
	use_backend domainx.com if url_domainx.com-path1 url_domainx.com
	use_backend domainx.com if url_domainx.com
 
backend domainx.com
        server web1 192.168.0.50:8080 check
		
backend domainx.com-path1
        server web2 192.168.0.51:8080 check
