Hi Carissa,
I'm not sure I understand your question and what you are trying to achieve.
For a start I don't understand why you create an HTTP connection in your
beginXXX() method ... ? This is supposed to be done for you by Cactus itself
...
Also, check
http://jakarta.apache.org:8080/jyve-faq/Turbine/screen/DisplayQuestionAnswer
/action/SetAll/project_id/2/faq_id/39/topic_id/211/question_id/807 as it
might help.
Thanks
Vincent.
