Hello Tomcat Users et. al. I've been developing with tomcat for a few years now, and I've never had this problem until I decided to restructure some code to save time by consolidating files with similar content AT DIFFERENT LEVELS in the DIRECTORY TREE. Now these files I have been using, I was already including in each of my jsp's as a header.inc or a header.jsp by using the <%@ include file="header.inc" %> directive and they'd been working great. Now I decided I only wanted them at one directory level so I could maintain them easier. So is a child directory I used the directive <%@ include file="../header.jsp" %>.
But when I made these changes, some bizarre behavior started. At first I thought it was random, but then I checked closer and the error occurs at a regular interval. When I would load my page, sometimes it would load properly, and other times, I would get a 500 error as seen below. So I tried reloading the page four times a second to see if the occurance was random. It was not. The error occured once in 12 page reloads over a period of three seconds, and the pattern continued that way for some time, in a very precise manner. This happens on pages both in the application root which sit directly beside the header.jsp file to be included, and on pages in the child directory. What would be causing this? I run SuSE linux and KDE. I've tried in multiple browsers to avoid cacheing errors.
