Content Encoding Error accessing web interface

Solr 8.11.2
Apache 2.4.52

I have moved solr to a new server, all is working except an odd response 
when accessing solr through the web interface.

If I use the port like so http://URL:8993 it works fine

If I use reverseproxy to put solr behind the apache server like so 
http://URL/solr I get


  Content Encoding Error

An error occurred during a connection to mbepaperstesting.csps.com.

  * Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

Here is the reverseproxy definition I am using that worked OK on the old 
server... <Location "/solr" > ProxyPass http://localhost:8983/solr 
ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:8983/solr Order allow,deny Allow from 
all </Location> This worked fine on the old server and works fine on the 
new server for Tomcat and other interfaces. But not Solr? I will be 
closing off port 8983 for production and need to be able to access the 
solr interface through apache. Any ideas as to why this is happening? 
thanks, Scott
