Do you mean that a both front end requests, /myapp/A and /myapp/B, both
request just /myapp/ on the back end server?

I assume so because otherwise you have the pat to test.

If so, that's similar to the problem with SSL where the front end
server proxies the same path to the backend.  How does the backend
know to make a http or https url with uri_for()?

What I do is have the Cat application listen on different ports so the
Cat application knows if it was an ssl request based on the port the
request comes in on.
