I have a reverse proxy setup in Debian 8.2 (Jessie) with Apache 2.4.10-10+deb8u where I have two separate virtual hosts, one for http and another for https, based on the following config:

I have several web services (and their WSDL) exposed from the internal IP 10.1.0.116 as you may see in the Proxy* config directives, the problem is that I haven't been able to redirect incoming plain http traffic into those web services, and they are only working using https, so I guess there must be something wrong with my VirtualHost config at port 80.
Even stranger is that when the request URL is like:
http://HOST/telemetria-ws/frioChileTempService/
I do get a response*, but an empty one with the following Response headers:
*Response seems to be HTTPS as valid certificates appear in the SOAP-UI SSL Info
But when I add the port 80 to the URL (which should be the same as above):
http://HOST:80/telemetria-ws/frioChileTempService/
The server interprets it as SSL but using a plaintext connection:
Wed Feb 22 10:52:21 ART 2017:ERROR:javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Unrecognized SSL message, plaintext connection?
Where can I be having the mismatched config? The desired would be to redirect plain http to https, but don't exactly understand what could be happening.
