There are a few things why we use apache with mod_jk. First of all it would not be possible to run Tomcat as user because it should listen on port 80/443. Additionally we can use mod_security to precheck requests delivered to tomcat to remove use- and sensless requests and minimise the risk of attacks. The second thing is that apache is faster with delivering static files (maybe we will use Tux as well). Third thing is if something happens to tomcat we are still able to display a please-come-back-later-site with apache. If some things mentioned above are not correct I would appreciate to here about it, of course with useful arguments.

I did not find the actual problem but I can live with this script not
delivered by apache. Maybe this is because the js is inside a jar file?

Since you don't seem to be using httpd for anything useful, why not just 
eliminate it, and serve everything with Tomcat?  If you enable the APR 
connector, Tomcat will even handle SSL just as fast as httpd, and you use the 
same SSL setup that you had with httpd.
