Well, my problem was with the servlet's init method being called every time the servlet was called. Old WebSphere 2.0 problem.
If your static counters are not being incremented then that suggests that your "two" servlets are being instantiated in two seperate JVMs. It almost sounds as if you are starting Tomcat through Apache and also starting Tomcat as stand-alone as well. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ching-yu Hsueh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, December 19, 2002 3:41 PM Subject: Re: Why web.xml in my application runs twice when use Apache as Web Server? > Dood idea!
