Is it just me, or are both halves of that if statement exactly identical? Based on this snippet of code only, you should get the same results regardless of flag's value. Is there other code that checks this flag, and does the getRequestDispatcher call differently?
It sounds like you are forwarding to yourself, and that whatever logic determines the value of flag is based on the forwarded request parameters, so it will always keep determining it to be false and forward once more to itself => infinite recursion.

I have a code snippet like this if(flag) { requestdispatcher.forward(request,response); } else { requestdispatcher.forward(request,response); } The problem is if flag is true the forward and I get the desired result. But in the else case I get a java.lang.StackOverFlowError . The stack trace is java.lang.StackOverflowError at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationHttpRequest.removeAttribute(ApplicationH ttpRequest.java:229) And the error is at the forward of the false case. Can somebody help me with this problem.
