You can use Singleton pattern, but care must be taken. For example if ( singleton == null ) { singleton = new SingletonObj(); } There might be a case where few thread running concurrently on the null checking, then multiple singleton object will be created more than one. __

Hi, You could have two instances of your object because of an improper mapping in web.xml. For example if in your servlet mapping the url-pattern for your servlet is /*, any access to your app will access this servlet thus resulting in two instantiations. You should initialize your object in the

Perhaps the problem is that your servlet *is* being started, but is throwing an exception during constructor or init method..print statements in your constructor and init method should prove this one way or another. The load-on-startup value is just an integer that indicates order of startup (low
