Dear List,
As a new subscriber (and user of Tomcat), please forgive me if this subject
has been raised before.
The company I work for has been supplied with a Java toolkit by an external
contractor that allows us to access our database software through JSP pages.
It uses the normal combination
Thanks, for taking the time to investigate this. It would be nice if
somehow Tomcat could be made to be immune to such application errors.

You could check to see if the ServletRequest is a

The advantage of using the HttpServlet is that you get
some automated http handling, such

If you POST to a servlet which extends HttpServlet and that

Holy Smoke...I know this one...you need to have doGet call doPost like this:
public void doGet (HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws ServletException
{
doPost(req, res);
}
public void doPost (HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse

Why? I thought that the default doPost() just calls service(). I didn't have
to override anything in

So, doPost calls itself in an endless loop, sending the servlet into

Or until a java.lang.StackOverflowError exception is thrown. :)
Seriously, if a servlet gets a StackOverflowError does that impact Tomcat?
That is, can Tomcat run out of stack space if a loop in a servlet gets out

One question - why would you need a HttpServlet? The only time I needed it what when I
nedded HttpResponse object, so I could send redirect. And I didn't override doPost(),
YourServlet extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet, and

I just have to say that the reload has NEVER worked for my webapps, even
though I've marked them as reloadable.
At least not on my 3.x installations.
BTW: It's better to add doPost, doGet and a generic processRequest to your

Have you implemented the doPost() method in your servlet or the doGet()?
It needs to be doPost if you're posting from a form.

Paul, your reply triggered a thought and subsequent solution!
What I had done was to run the servlet first using the GET method, then
changed it to use the POST method, recompiled, ran the web page and got the

Then I realized Tomcat is holding my old GET method servlet im memory!
So I
phew - glad you figured it out because I was pretty stumped : )
Thats odd though, because tomcat should auto reload your servlet by default
when you've recompiled and then requested it, you shouldn't have to restart
tomcat.
