double Vs Big Decimal in two different WebLogic servers

I had this strange problem:

One app doing some mathematical operations with doubles and showing the results formated for two decimal places worked well in one server but in another server the decimal places were always set to zero. Changing from doubles to BigDecimals everything worked well in the two servers.

I was wondering why!

Floating point precision is a common point of confusion:

But the same Java program should not perform differently on two different servers.
