There is an article about this subject on JGuru http://jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=471960
The article speaks about a Struts example that defines a second servlet before the ActionServlet. But the struts-example.war of the Struts1.1b2 doesn't defined two servlets. Has someone this example ? I use Servlet2.3, so in a first time I would to make initializations in the ServletContextListener but as we can not display error on a JSP page I have to change my code. I don't understand well what kind of initialization can be done in the contextInitialized() method because a lot of initialization (like connection to an application server or database connection) can generate errors. The filter feature doesn't resolve the display of the error, isn't it ? -----Original Message----- From: Tarek M.

Now, as for the first idea, even if I designate that the servlet which I will use to do that initialization starts before the struts controller. Do I guarantee that all initializations done by this servlet will be finished before the application receives any requests? This is very important, actually.
