That's not a problem of a redirect not working -- which would manifest
itself in your web browser internally rendering an error message,
along the lines of not being able to connect to the server -- it's an
error message from the IDP application that the endpoint details from
the SAML don't match what it thinks is its own configuration:

The endpoint details are using http (not https), a different host name
(AFAICT, from your obfuscation attempts) and a different port (8443,
not 443). But something virtualises all those things and makes your
server available at https://portal.test.de/. no?

Tomcat's http connector allows to virtualise the scheme (http) and
also the server name and port, c.f.
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/http.html#Proxy_Support
so if there's some kind of proxy or TLS offloading involved that's
what you'd need to configure.

If there is no other system/server involved then I'd need to know how
exactly you've configured Tomcat to be able to be accessed at
https://portal.test.de/
