Stackoverflow on Java JAX-WS

I'm trying to make a servlet to handle add or updates to a JDBC database, the data is passed through POST and when i'm trying to create or edit some new data, gives a java.lang.StackOverflowError.

here's the code:

package servlet;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import org.netbeans.rest.application.config.JerseyTerrenos;
import org.netbeans.rest.application.config.Terrenos;

public class Sucessoterreno extends HttpServlet {

Terrenos terrenos = new Terrenos();
JerseyTerrenos jterrenos = new JerseyTerrenos();
Integer thebiggest = 0;

        throws ServletException, IOException {
    processRequest(request, response);

Solution

You are making a recursive call:

protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
        throws ServletException, IOException 
{
    processRequest(request, response); // CALLS ITSELF
}

The stack trace can tell you that immediately: all stack trace elements will be at this .processRequest() method.
