I overwrote the service-method of HttpServlet. When I call my servlet using an PUT service() is not called. If I use a normal Webform, it is called. I also had a look on the sent packages - They are almost equal, but the one begins with put and the other with post. Due to that fact I am pretty sure that it has to do with Tomcat.

This doesn't sound right. javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet has a method, doPut, that has the same signature of doGet and doPost. It's default action is to send an error message to the client. All you should have to do is implement doPut in your servlet and everything will work out. This shouldn't have anything to do with Tomcat. -chris
