That's what I thought. You say that, but I don't see any errors. For 
example, I have a servlet that's accessed by using 
/Myapp/servlet/MyServlet. This works and shows the updated version every 
time. As soon as the change is made you can refresh the browser and the 
changes show up. But I also added a mapping to that same servlet using 
/Myapp/map/*. When you access the servlet this way you get the first 
response and from that time on you only get that response. If you change 
the information it just keeps showing the last responses information. If 
you then access the servlet using /Myapp/servlet/MyServlet it show the 
changes. But the other mapping will never change it just keeps showing the 
same response. I also get the same type of problem using jsp forwarding. 
Can you tell me what I should start looking for? The logs don't show any 
problems that I can see. Any suggestions?

Howdy,
Tomcat doesn't cache servlet responses.  It's that simple.

The behavior you're seeing is most likely explained by an error in the
your servlet: check the server logs.
