Ah - that did it - thankyou !
This works in other servers - is this a "feature"?
Not sure....I thought we were relying on the jetty and tomcat
behavior here rather than trying to override it.
Any clue if I can override the servlet params in my geronimo-
web.xml file?
Not yet :-). This sounds like a good feature request though.
thanks

Subject: Re: Servlet init params not being picked up
I don't think the init parameters are available via the method
you're using
until after the servlet is initialized. Try using this signature
for init
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException
and then using the getParameterNames method on the ServletConfig
object.

Hi,
My servlet isn't picking up the init params. Am I doing something
wrong?
Additionally - can I change these params in the geronimo-web.xml
file so
they change at deployment?
My servlet init method
public void init() throws ServletException
{
super.init();
// I used to get a specific param but that failed too so I moved
to this
test case
Enumeration names = getServletContext().getInitParameterNames();
System.out.println("Printing out init params");
while(names.hasMoreElements())
{
System.out.println("'"+names.nextElement()+"'");
}
outputs this to stdio ->
Printing out init params
but no params !
This is the web.xml....
