OK - I try to explain my problem again: I want to use a program which sends data to my Tomcat Server to be stored an disk. The problem is that the program provides only PUT. At the moment I just try to get the service-method called which is the initiater for a Servlet. As far as I know, service() usually calls the appropriate method which can be doGet() or doPost() but doPut() as well. But duPut() haven't been called. Therefore I overwrote service() and expected it to handle any request by just writing a debuginformation into a logfile. But that happend only when I sent a request from a normal html-form using the POST- or GET-method. When I use the program for which I write my Servlet nothing happens at all. I also traced the TCP-connection using Ethereal and found out that both the HTML-form and the "PUT-program" send data to the Servlet. But it just isnt't triggert when Tomcat receives a PUT-request. Therefore I think that I need to reconfigure Tomcat in any way but I have no idea how to do that. And by the way: even Apache doesn't accept PUT-requests by default.
I would still be happy if anybody can help me. Cheers Philipp 2006/10/20, Christopher Schultz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Are you using some kind of application framework such as Struts or Tapestry? If so, then the rules are very different.
