That does not look quite right to me. I'd normally expect to see the following: <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"; version="2.5"> Tomcat is usually pretty tolerant of that sort of thing but worth checking anyway. > <display-name>allMATCHWeb</display-name> > <servlet> > <servlet-name>InitServlet</servlet-name> > <servlet-class>com.surecomp.allMATCH.client.InitServlet</servlet-class> > <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> > </servlet> > <servlet-mapping> > <servlet-name>InitServlet</servlet-name> > <url-pattern>/InitServlet</url-pattern> > </servlet-mapping> That looks OK. Not the recommended way to do things, but it should work. > <welcome-file-list> > <welcome-file>/login.html</welcome-file> As per the Servlet specification, welcome files should not have leading '/' characters. > </welcome-file-list> > </web-app> > > > This is the InitServlet class declaration > public class InitServlet extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet > implements javax.servlet.Servlet, Internationalizable > > This is the start of init() method > > public void init() throws ServletException { > synchronized (this) { > if (initialized || initializing) return; > initializing = true; > } > logger = new Logging(); > contextPath = getServletContext().getRealPath("/"); getRealPath() is not guaranteed to return a file system path. Also writing log files inside the web app is usually a bad idea since you lose the logs when the app is undeployed.
