Before doing anything else, can you please disable the PhpCgiFilter in
your web-inf/web.xml? It simply returns under certain conditions. If
that works, your proxy uses a url that the filter cannot parse.

Do you have a packet sniffer (ethereal for example)? If not firebug
may also reveil the problem.
Take a look at the tomcat log, it should contain GET requests for .php files.

Good.

I assume you have restarted tomcat after that. -- Interesting. Do you
see the requestin the tomcat log? Any new exceptions?

Yes.


BTW: Did jsr223.jsp return the PHP-generated content or an exception?
