Here is something gone wrong.
Why should a 'normal' Java class do not have a constructor? (see
OO-basics)
next should be a look at the docs :
"
public GenericServlet()
Does nothing, because this is an abstract class. All of the
servlet initialization is done by one of the init methods.
public void init(ServletConfig <../../javax/servlet/ServletConfig.html>
config)
throws ServletException
<../../javax/servlet/ServletException.html>
Initializes this servlet.
The servlet engine calls this method once, automatically, each
time it loads the servlet. This method is guaranteed to finish before
the servlet accepts any requests to its service method. If a fatal error
occurs while the servlet is being initialized, the servlet engine should
throw an UnavailableException, rather than calling the System.exit
method.
The init method stores the ServletConfig
<../../javax/servlet/ServletConfig.html> object it receives from the
servlet engine. If you override init, you should either call super.init
or store the ServletConfig object in the new init method. If you decide
to store the ServletConfig object in a different location, you should
also override the getServletConfig()
<../../javax/servlet/GenericServlet.html> method.
