try this

config.ru
require ::File.expand_path('../config/environment',  __FILE__)
map ENV['RAILS_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT'] || '/' do
  run Rails.application
end

and don't forget to set the variable in your environment, for example

/etc/systemd/system/unicorn.service
[Service]
Environment=RAILS_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT=/redmine
...

Doesn't work for me on fresh installation of 4.0.4 + apache 2.4.39 + passenger 6.0.2. Tried with mod_proxy and without.
Can you show your apache httpd-vhost.conf?
What changes you made in redmine files (config.ru, config/environment.rb, etc.)?

Thanks!

It work now.

Hi!

I am trying to install Redmine 4.0.4 in a Docker container and I want to make it accessible under the '/redmine' sub-URI. I'm experiencing the same problem as described in post 1 and have tried all your solutions already but nothing is working.

Has someone got another solution or can explain what the problem is exactly?

Thanks!

PS: Description of my environment:
PostgreSQL 9.6.10
ruby 2.5.5p157 (2019-03-15 revision 67260)
Rails 5.2.3
Redmine 4.0.4 in alpine linux 3.9.4 Docker container

Found a solution for my problem, see https://www.redmine.org/issues/32318#note-1

Thanks, pavel ochman Rosický's solution works for me.
I am using Redmine 4.1.1.

The following is the methods that don't work for me: https://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/HowTo_Install_Redmine_in_a_sub-URI, https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/deploy/apache/deploy/ruby/#deploying-an-app-to-a-sub-uri-or-subdirectory and https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17753631/how-to-deploy-rails-app-on-subdomain-root-with-apache-and-passenger/17764475.
