Just to confirm: no ":9080" on that one? It probably means that a second
proxy_redirect will be needed; added below.

There is no "proxy_pass" here, so the rest of the configuration is
effectively unused and the request is served from the filesystem --
which explains the responses you get.

Perhaps try instead

  location / {
    proxy_pass http://webint;
    proxy_redirect http://webint/ /;
    proxy_redirect http://webint:9080/ /;
  }

and add the other bits if they are needed.

That should become "whatever the webapp returns for a / request". If it
is not a redirect to /WebApp/, it can be fixed later.

That should become a sensible response -- hopefully a redirect to
http://web.domain.com/WebApp/main.jsf.

If you do get that, they you can try

  curl -i http://web.domain.com/WebApp/main.jsf

to see what happens next; or just try it in your normal browser.
