When I have to do this (using Tomcat not Apache) I uninstall mid-tier, tomcat, then java, then install the new versions in the reverse order of uninstall. Too many settings that would be created by the installers end up out of whack otherwise, especially on Windows where there is a registry involved, and where new JDKs install with a new path. I have seldom seen attempts to "upgrade" any of these components work properly - it's easier and safer to just reinstall them.

Does it matter which I upgrade first? I know that I will probably have to reinstall Midtier after doing Java.
