Satyan:
We routinely use initialization parameters for our servlets, including
alias names, and we use JRun, and yes, you are right, the
servlets.properties file is the file to edit. What kind of error are you
getting? I assume your initialization code is in the init() method?
Maybe you can put your initialization code within a try/catch block and
get a stacktrace so you can see excatly where your code fails... One
thing we found is that the servlets.properties file is *very* finicky:
any carriage returns and the initialization will not work, because the
init parameters are not read properly. So (assuming you are working in
an UNIX environment) make sure you are editing the proerties file using
vi/emacs and there are no "bad" carriage return kind of characters.
Good luck!
