RE: Help, why is my servlet calling init twice?
Hi, Also, if you have two servlet tags in web.xml, two instances are guaranteed to be created and initialized by Tomcat.

Help, why is my servlet calling init twice?
Hello, I am hoping someone can shed some light on this I am using Tomcat jakarta-tomcat-5.0.24 on RH9 When I have load-on-startup1/load-on-startup set in my web.xml My init in the servlet that I have this set for gets called twice. It is so bizarre. But, in my devel env it does not (XP, tomcat 5, intellij) If I remove the load-on-startup tag from the web.xml, then the first time I call the servlet the init gets only called once Any ideas?

RE: Help, why is my servlet calling init twice?
This just means that Tomcat has instantiated your servlet class twice. The load-on-startup tag only indicates the order that the servlets should be started in. Benjamin J.
