hi Uma,
If the same application is working fine with tomcat + windows and
not working with tomcat+ linux, try out follwoing,it may solve ur problem
for time being.
1)Use one more servlet and integrate with struts instead of
using plug-in or extending
ActionServlet.This but be nothing but workaround to the given probs. Ideally
u shud go for plug-in.
2)In the plugin class,apply some checks if the db
connections are already created dont create it again.

Subject: PlugIn/ ActionServlet init() method called 2 times in Linux
Hi,
Can anyone pl help on my below mail? Some more things I noticed are:
I downloaded the latest struts-1.2.2 zip. To the struts-blank.war I
added a simple plugin class (that prints system.out.println in the
constructor, init, and destroy methods) called MyPlugIn.java. I deployed
the struts-blank in tomcat-4.1.18 on WIN 2k. Works fine where the print
statements are printed once.
Whereas in tomcat-4.1.18 on Linux they are printed 2 times each.
I tried using an extended ActionServlet class for initialization. Even
in this constructor, init() and destroy() methods are called 2 times on
Linux and once on windows.
I did really appreciate any help as our application has to go live and
this could affect the performance of our application (as the DB
connections are created multiple times).
Can anyone pl suggest ways to initialize a struts webapp other than
plugIn and extended ActionServlet.
Thanks & Regards,
Uma.

Subject: PlugIn's init(...) method is called multiple times in Linux
Hi,
I have 3 struts based applications running in Tomcat 4.1.18. I have
deployed them in Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 3.0 platform.
In all my 3 apps, I have implemented the Struts's PlugIn interface for
doing the initialization tasks and configured them in the
struts-config.xml as shown below (for one of the apps):
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
<set-property
property="pathnames"
value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,/WEB-INF/validation.xml"/>
</plug-in>
<plug-in className="com.a.b.c.d.e.InitPlugIn">
<set-property property="filepath" value="/config/app.properties"
/>
</plug-in>
In the init(ActionServlet servlet, ModuleConfig config) method of these
plugin classes I create DB connections.
On Windows (2k) platform it works fine. That is the init(.) method is
called once for each app/plugin and the configured number of connections
are created.
But when I deploy them on our target Linux platform the init(.) method
of 2 apps is called 2 times and the other app is called 4 times. I had
some debug statements in the init(.) method of PlugIn class and they
show it is called multiple times.
Pl give your ideas on how I can resolve this. Any help will be highly
appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Uma.
