Re: why do we need to integrate tomcat with apache webserver and how.pls urgent

I agree with everything nico just said, however there is no reason if 
you're just wanting to run a basic webserver with java/jsp you cant 
just change tomcat to serve over port 80 and forget about apache.

The built in http server is pretty good and in some situations performs 
as well as apache with jk, even at delivering the static content.

If you just have a couple of apps in an intranet type situation (you 
know how many users) its worth considering using tomcat's http server.

Posted by Nicolas De Loof <ni...@capgemini.com>.
I fully agree with you.

If you don't have to serve other static files than gif/css for your webapp, don't need load-balancing, don't have hard
security constraints (intranet serer) just use tomcat HTTP connector. It will be really simplier to configure
