I have added ProxyPass in the virtual-host and end up with below error in the error.log file.

proxy: No protocol handler was valid for the URL /. If you are using a DSO version of mod_proxy, make sure the proxy submodules are included in the configuration using LoadModule.

In the front end I get 500 when I request particular page.

How can I fix this error?
