Hi all,

I have a problem and I hope that somebody will be able
to help me out.
I am using Websphere 3.02 on S390. I have a servlet
which calls CICS/COBOL programs in its init() method
using EXCI/CGI.
The servlet works fine as long as it is not an
auto-start servlet.When it is an auto-start servlet, I
am not able to connect to CICS and the init() method
of the servlet fails with a NullPointerException at
the point where an attempt to connect to CICS is made.
The only difference I can see when the servlet is not
an auto-load servlet and when it is, is that, when it
is not an auto-load servlet the user,
when he invokes the servlet is prompted for a CICS
user-id and password, which ofcourse wouldnt happen
when it is an auto-load servlet.
Do we need to conifigure some Webserver property when
an auto-start servlet needs to access some resource
like a database server, to access which requires
a user id and a password, authentication. If so, would
anybody know how it can be done in WAS. I have checked
all the manuals and web-sites that I could but couldnt
find any help anywhere. If somebody has faced a
similar problem please let me know.

-Sandeep
