You probably do not need "proxy_redirect http://webint/ /;", because
what the upstream sends back probably always includes the :9080. But it
does no extra harm to leave it there.

Add an extra location block for that request:

  location = / { return 301 /WebApp/; }

And then issue the "curl" command for the url you want; when you get a
301 redirect, issuer a curl command for the Location: header returned.

If the Location: header looks wrong -- does not point at something in
web.domain.com -- then you'll have identified which request leads to
the unwanted response.

Good luck with it,
