Could you create debug log of this request ?

nginx does not support variables in left part of proxy_redirect, therefore
you should configure Apache.

Look
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/core.html#usecanonicalname
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/core.html#port

Try to set
UseCanonicalName  on

and replace
Port 8080
with
Listen 8080
