Anyone know how to init() a servlet (Struts) in iplanet 4.1

[Juan Pedro <Ju...@atosodsorigin.com>]

I´m trying to use Struts with iplanet4.1. I don´t know how
to call the Struts ActionServlet function init() from the start of
the server. Any solution?

Thanks

Juan Pedro.

I'm pretty sure you'll have problems doing this. 
iPlanet 4.1 predates the Servlet 2.2 
specification.  Struts is written with a minimum 
dependency on Servlet 2.2.  I'm actually not sure 
which Servlet spec iPlanet uses, but I know  that 
it doesn't use the "WAR" web application 
structure with a WEB-INF configuration directory. 
Instead, there are Netscape specific properties 
files (jvm12.conf, servlets.properties, 
rules.properties...) that are used to configure 
servlets.

We use iPlanet 4.1 as a web server in some 
installations, and when we use it with Struts, we 
use an NSAPI plugin to proxy requests for 
application functions over to Weblogic or JBoss.
