Thanks for the reply. It's basically a job scheduler that run in a thread. With invoking the thread in init method of a Dummy servlet class (which loads on startup), it's running fine. Just want to know if there are other ways as well like weblogic startup and shutdown classes.

The exact method depends on why you can't use load-on-startup. Are you trying to start an external service of some kind? Or do you need something that will interact directly with the objects in your webapp? The more details the better. Just FYI, Tomcat specific questions are on-topic for servlet-interest, but you'll generally get better answers over in tomcat-users (jakarta.apache.org, look for the "mailing lists" link) -- Christopher St. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] DistribuTopia http://www.distributopia.com ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
