As I (and others) have tried to tell you, using static is likely
unrelated to the real problem. If you're using a recent servlet
engine/container, it will not be creating multiple instances of a
servlet, so whether something is static or not shouldn't make a
difference. There has to be something else going on here. And using
static is likely not the best solution. I suggest you learn more
about synchronized, in particular, how you must synchronize on some
particular object.
