Running gitlab mattemost on apache 24 server with subdirectory (e.g. http://myserver.com/mattermost)

I tried the steps listed here: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/3156 and it worked fine.

But now I want to run mattermost server on a sub directory like (myserver.com/mattermost) but it fails always. The webpage displays:

Cannot connect to Mattermost We’re having trouble connecting to Mattermost. If refreshing this page (Ctrl+R or Command+R) does not work, please verify that your computer is connected to the internet.

The url directed to (myserver.com/static/main.2b75939e681d6c1cdd03.js)

and here is my .conf file:

  SSLEngine on
  SSLProxyEngine On

I hope there is someone succeeded in configuring mattermost with sub path, or could be this a missing feature then it should be added in future.
Thanks.
