RKM 7.1.01 will install its own instance of Tomcat 5.5.20 for both JSP container and web, or use the ones installed by mid-tier, or the ubiquitous "Other" if you want, such as IIS and SE/ SE AS. Remember that RKM is also installing its own instance of Hummingbird SearchServer on the web platform that you choose, and it runs as a Java application on the same web server. The consequences of sharing the mid-tier web instance are that (a) you have to set it up manually to load the ARS java components ONLY ONCE, in Tomcat or SE, or the first service to load (mid-tier or RKM) "wins" the JVM, and (b) a crash of Hummingbird within RKM can definitely crash Tomcat, which on restart can send your mid-tier off on a prefetch run again which is guaranteed to impair your AR Server for up to 30 minutes. The _best_ setup I have found for a production system is to give RKM a separate server from mid-tier but use the default Tomcat installation; mine shares the server with EIE, a non-web application that also deserves its own machine.

But the JSP containers it supports are: Tomcat: 4.1.2, 5.5 ServletExec ISAPI 5+ I've reminded the PM for that product to post something external on this... Thanks, -David J.
