Hi,
Problems might be:
- init does not take an instance of ServletContext, it takes ServletConfig, but maybee you misstyped in the mail.
- The servlet won't load if it has compiletime errors or throws an exception in init (I think).

Subject: load-on-startup doesn't work
I have a servlet that starts up my application when Orion (1.0.3 - yes, a very old one) is started. The problem is that nothing happens - init(ServletContext) doesn't get called. I have this in global-web-application.xml:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Software</servlet-name>
<display-name>Software</display-name>
<servlet-class>foo.bar.Software</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
<init-param>
<param-name>application-directory</param-name>
<param-value>applications/software</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
What could be the problem? Any suggestions how to debug this? I don't have any clues...
