Navin,

JBoss has an embedded Tomcat which includes a webserver.

LAMS requires an servlet container and we use JBoss for that. The embedded Tomcat webserver "serves" the LAMS application. If you try to put the jboss directory in your /var/www/htdocs you are actually serving the whole jboss

If you really need to serve LAMS using Apache, then you can use mod_jk which is a way acts as a proxy for Tomcat. However, you would generally use mod_jk for clustering and/or to server static content faster. Here are instructions on how to use LAMS with mod_jk

Thanks,

Ernie
