There could be a couple of reasons. One of them: you could possible have declared the servlet twice in the web.xml. Check if other servlets in the same webapp are getting initialized twice. This may a some way in helping you pinpoint where the problem is. Check that you don't have the duplicate Contexts mapped to the same docBase. Check that the elements in the web.xml are in the correct order.

I included into the web.xml for the application under the on-load. The init method of the servlet is called two times, but not the service method of the servlet. I am not sure why the init method should get called 2 times? We are using Tomcat 4.0 on Apache. What do we do to execute a servlet on web-server startup?
