Version 6.0 sp2 is not able to reload servlets withour server restart

Question

          I am unable to have WebLogic reload servlets without restarting the whole WebLogic
          application. It will work for a few days and then it stops. They only way I
          can fix the problem is if I reinstall all of WebLogic. How can I fix this?
          Here is the part of my config.xml file which applies.
          <Application Deployed = "true" Name = "DefaultWebApp_myserver" Path = ".\config\mydomain\applications">
          <WebAppComponent IndexDirectoryEnabled = "true"
          Name = "DefaultWebApp_myserver"
          ServletExtensionCaseSensitive = "true"
          ServletReloadCheckSecs = "0"
          Targets = "myserver"
          URI = "DefaultWebApp_myserver"/>
          </Application>

Hi Ravi,
When you are using the WLS Web Services stack on the server side, the web service implementation is expected to be a WLS Web Service (i.e. a web service built with the servicegen Ant task) that the WebServiceServlet tries to load, using the web-services.xml (i.e. the deployment descriptor that the WLS Web Services stack uses for web services). In your case, is this what you are trying to do? In other words:
1. Do you have a web service that was built using one of the Web Services tool Ant tasks that come with WLS 8.1 (i.e. servicegen), which is attempting to use Spring beans inside the web service implementation?
2. If so, are the web.xml and webservices-servlet.xml files you cited in your post, inside the WEB-INF directory of the .war, of the .ear built using the Ant task? You would have had to put these in there manually, if so.
3. Assuming that you've done this, are all the Spring-related and other .jar files the web service implementation needs, in the WEB-INF/lib directory? Again, you would have had to put these in there manually, if they are.
If you have already done all of these, and it still doesn't work, you might want to try what Thomas Czarniecki did:
