[assmuming your running on jdk 1.1.x]
if your running jdk 1.1.x then there is a known problem
with jsdk2.1 which can result in this behaviour
[http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/knownIssues.html].
a patched version of jsdk can be found at:
http://java.sun.com/products/jsp
jswdk (java server web development kit contains
jsdk 2.1 ri, jsp 1.0 ri and an http
server)
alternatively, you could try running your copy of jsdk
2.1 on jdk 1.2.x to see if this resolves your problem.
hope this helps,
