Hi Axel, In a development environment you only need tomcat, but as you go into production testing you will want to run behind an apache server for performance reasons. Basically you don't want to waste java threads on serving images, javascript files, css documents, and anything else that can be handled statically. Use the mod_jk module for apache. You will need to tell apache to forward anything *.psml and /portal/* to tomcat. The basic mod_jk configuration is the binary module and a config file called workers.properties. Google tomcat mod_jk howto and check the tomcat docs.
