Personally I feel it would be better to install the tomcat engine after downloading it from apache as the latest patch for Tomcat 5 server is 5.5.27 while the bundled version is 5.5.25. The bundled version does not have the Tomcat manager or admin modules included and these if needed have to be separately downloaded anyways.. So downloading it from apache, you could download the newest drop of Tomcat for version 5 (as I'm not quite sure if MT 7.1 would be compatible with Tomcat 6 - haven't tried that configuration personally) Also do not forget to configure the min and max heap size for Tomcat, failing which Tomcat could crash for lack of memory. Your max heap size should preferably be no more than 70% of the total available free memory allowing the system about 30% available headroom to perform other system tasks.. Joe

Tomcat will be installed and used for both the application server and the web server. If you install Tomcat first, manually, then select it as your web server during the mid-tier installation – it should appear in addition to IIS and Other (on Windows servers). The documentation does not show all of the possible dialog boxes or permutations of the installation process in this case.

I have seen some posts indicating that this was possible but I am unable to find steps to sucessfully install tomcat with midtier where tomcat is the webserver also.
