In that case, I have to wonder if your module is getting compiled and deployed correctly. Perhaps LabKey is continuing to load an older version of your module.
- Find the list of modules on the admin console and expand your module.
- Does the "Module Class" match the Java class of your module? It shouldn't be org.labkey.api.module.SimpleModule, since this is a Java module.
- Do the build time, build path, and extracted path match your expectations?
You could also add logging statements to your init() and startup() methods to rule out breakpoint issues.
