Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

Reason : Request Header size was big for some profiles which server was refusing

Fix: To fix we have make modification in httpd.conf

  LimitRequestFieldSize 16384

<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName xxxxxxxxx
   LimitRequestFieldSize 16384
   RequestHeader set WL-Proxy-SSL true
   RewriteEngine on
