Per my background using tomcat as JSP Engine for Mid tier, only you need to publish the WAR File or install the midtier inside the webapps directory of tomcat.
This means to install mid tier under: apache-directory/tomcat5.5.25/webapps/arsys/ If you do this you'll have the arsys context for application inside the tomcat, and you won't need to modify the httpd.conf files or others related to apache server (unless you need to make a performance & tunning).
