I have been trying to solve this issue now for a couple of days without any progress but I now know why the problem exists. I updated the web app and re-deployed it and realised that it is using an older version of the webapp. It would seem the context root of the servlet is being changed to an older cached version of the app that exists somewhere (not in the webapp directory. The updated war file is the only app in the webapp directory) so why it's behaving this way is a mystery to me right now. I hope someone can shed a light on this for me. Thanks for any pointers in advance.
