Hello Naill,
I put a bunch of System.out.print statements in the init method and learned it is actually being called. I figured I could set a breakpoint in the init() method and that Netbeans would break at that point but this doesn't appear to be the case. I find this behavior odd. Thanks for the idea though of trying to make something show up on the console from inside the method.
Warm Regards,
Dave

The init() and init(ServletConfig) methods are part of the servlet API
- the container calls  init(ServletConfig) and that method then fires
init() - so if they are not getting called then I don't think it has
anything to do with Struts. Have you checked your logs for any errors?

I have an old application written using Struts 1.1 that has a subclass of ActionServlet which overrides the init() method to load data from some XML files. It works fine w/ Struts 1.1. I haven't touched it for years but now need to do some work on it. My current Netbeans environment has Struts 1.2.9 and I figured I would just update it to the newer version but for the life of me I can't get the system to call the init() method. I have the subclass listed as the action servlet in web.xml (snippet below) and I can break in the doGet and doPost methods so the servlet is definitely being used as the ActionServlet in the application. Why isn't it calling the init() and/or init(ServletConfig config) methods?

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>action</servlet-name>

<servlet-class>TimeClockServlet2.TimeClockActionServlet</servlet-class>
        <init-param>

            <param-value>2</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

Warm Regards,
Dave
