Re: Struts and WebSphere - not find ActionMappings or ActionFormBeans collection

You are missing some of the jar files in your websphere context. Make sure you have 
all required jars in \lib in websphere.

Re: Struts and WebSphere - not find ActionMappings or ActionFormBeans collection

[ChangQing Zhou]

Thanks.

It however does not look like a "classNotFound" error. I debugged the code
and the error was from the line "moduleConfig =
RequestUtils.getModuleConfig(pageContext)". The moduleConfig was null.

I wonder if it is some sort of configuration issue.

-Changqing


protected void lookup() throws JspException {

// Look up the module configuration information we need
moduleConfig = RequestUtils.getModuleConfig(pageContext);

if (moduleConfig == null) {
JspException e = new
JspException(messages.getMessage("formTag.collections"));
pageContext.setAttribute(Globals.EXCEPTION_KEY, e,
PageContext.REQUEST_SCOPE);
throw e;
}

I'm not the guy who said that, but my main problem is I am not sure where to
start find the problem, it just says that it can't find an action-mapping
for my .do request. I have not changed any settings and it runs without a
hitch under tomcat.

A very common attitude, alas.

What would *really* help us ensure that 1.1 meets our high quality
expectations is that you'd at least throw your apps at it on a development
machine, and help us flush out any remaining problemss.  We're going to go
final real soon now -- it's just a matter of a few remaining bug reports.

But I worry about the bugs we *don't* know about, because many did not

Hi there,

I just wanted to see if there's anyone here who has succesfully deployed a
struts-based web application onWebsphere application server.

I am using Tomcat for development, but need to be able to deploy on
websphere?

As yet I have had no luck.

I am using

Struts 1.1Beta-1
Eclipse
am making the war file using Eclipse, the war file works with tomcat, but
not websphere.

Websphere pickup my welcome page, it then calls findefault.do, but that
causes a 500 error.

I think there must be some added setting one of my xml files needs.

Can anyone help me out

We've had success using Tomcat v3.3.1 and Struts 1.0.2 for development, and then

until it goes into production status.

Re: Struts and Websphere

[Giri Alwar]

I am not sure which version of WAS you are referring to. I have have worked
with WSAD 5.0 and have created/deployed a Struts app. from scratch in it
(works just fine). I must say that WSAD 5.0 provides wonderful Struts
support. It allows you to create a Struts project (which automatically
copies all the JARs, TLDs etc to the correct directories, sets up an empty
Struts config. file and a message resource file and maps the ActionServlet
as well). It also provides a built-in Struts configuration editor which
makes editing the file a breeze. You can also create Action, ActionForm
classes etc. very easily. One thing it does not provide direct support for
is the form validation feature (you will have to import the
validation-rules.xml file and create the validation.xml file from scratch).

RE: Struts and websphere 3.5 location of struts-config.xml

[Pruthee, Ranjan]

Check you default.servlet_engine for the path in the webgroup for ur appp. Look for 
path in "". Also it is looking for strits-config.xml or struts-config.xml? 
I think it might be a typo.

Thanks,

Hi 

I am using struts with websphere 3.5. In one of the application server i have kept the 
struts-config.xml in default_host\webapplicationame\servlets . It is working fine. The 
same setup is not working in other machine . In that server the apploication is 
looking for the strits-config.xml file default_host\webapplicationame\web\web-inf 
folder. 

I could not find out what is the difference. Both the server has same setup and having 
same version of struts. The action servlet in the both the server has same init 
parameter for struts-config.xml.

If anybody has any idea on this let me know. 

Thanks,
Subhendu

Using Struts with VisualAge for Java WTE 3.5.3



DRAFT!



This document is split up in two parts:

 Administrator's tasks.

  These tasks are related to the shared repository. They must be
carried out only
  once, by the administrator, at the start of the project.

 Team Developers' tasks.

  These tasks are related to the team developers' local
configurations and they must
  be performed once by each developer in order for him or her to be
able
  to test locally.


Throughout this document the article

will be referred to as "IBM's Struts article". It is recommended that you
read the
part of this article related to VAJ 3.5.3 before returning to this
document.

Note that although the approach used here deals with the latest
version of Struts, the 1.0 version, it will most probably work with all
versions. However,
for the version 1.0b the "hack" used in step 5 of the Administrator's task

Administrator's tasks.



Prerequisites:

 All WTE features must be present in the workspace before continuing.
That is:
 "IBM WebSphere Test Environment" and dependencies (i.e. "IBM XML
Parser for Java", etc.)
 must already be in your workspace.


1.)  Install a JAXP compatible XML parser.

  Struts depends on the presence of a JAXP compatible parser.

  JAXP is part of the Apache Tomcat 3.2.2 binary distribution
  downloadable from:


http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release/v3.2.2/bin/

  Install JAXP 1.0.1 as per the instructions found in the IBM
Struts article.
  Follow the instructions closely or problems may occur with
Windows 2000.

  Remember to version both the packages you imported and the
packages of which you
  created opened editions!


2.)  Download and install Apache Struts.

  Download and unzip the latest (at the time of this writing: 1.0)
version of the
  Apache Struts source code from:


http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-struts/release/v1.0/src/

  Create a new Struts project in the VAJ workspace (e.g.:
"ApacheStruts") and
  import the Struts source code into the new project.


3.)  Installing Struts resources.


  In the file system, using WinZip, open the file struts.jar which
comes with the
  Struts binary distribution at


http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-struts/release/v1.0/)

  and extract the files:

   org\apache\struts\resources\struts-config_1_0.dtd
   org\apache\struts\resources\web-app_2_2.dtd
   org\apache\struts\resources\web-app_2_3.dtd

  These file must be added the above path to the ApacheStruts
project on the
  "Resources" tab in the VAJ workspace. In addition to these files
the tag library
  descriptors must also be present (*a). These files are also part
of the Struts

Yeah, that's what I did/meant. I should have been more clear. :)
Unfortunately, that never worked for me!  

However, there is nothing to preclude user error on my part, albeit that is
not a difficult or complex task.  I haven't had the opportunity to go back
and try again since then and the second WEB-INF has actually been useful for
us.  So, who knows, technology is weird! :D (hehe)

I'm running WAS 3.5.3 Advanced 60-day trial. I followed your

Re: Struts and WebSphere

An alternate approach that worked for me:

Add the web folder to the struts-example application
classpath:

C:\WebSphere\AppServer\hosts\default_host\struts-example\web

When I did this, the struts-example app worked flawlessly.

That might be a little simpler config than maintaining two
separate WEB-INF folders, especially when updating a
deployment.

I like your idea of putting the DTDs in the systemwide
classpath.

short of it is that the original article was right about
adding the XML files to servlets\WEB-INF and
the TLD files to web\WEB-INF.

I would still make the argument that putting the DTDs in
c:\websphere\appserver\classes is a good thing, since it can
be done once system-wide *and* it solved my problems where

javax.servlet.UnavailableException: Missing configuration

 ...

I also notice that when the application is starting up, the
following messages appear in the log:

Loading servlet: "database"
[Servlet LOG]: "database: init"
[Servlet LOG]: "database: Initializing database servlet"
[Servlet LOG]: "database: Loading database from
'/WEB-INF/database.xml'"
[Servlet LOG]: "database: No such resource available -
loading empty database"
Servlet available for service: "database"

..

Seems like it's having difficulty finding resources in the
/WEB-INF folder. Any suggestions?

Subject: Struts and WebSphere


I noticed the WAS installation instructions at the URLs
below needed to be  merged. At this point, there is no
reason to recompile the Struts source to  make things work
with WAS, so the second URL is a bit dated. I also
found  the key to making Struts work without resorting to
creating extra WEB-INF directories or moving files around.

I took the text from the first URL and modified it. I split
the doc up into  2 parts: general Struts config and getting
the struts-example to run under  WAS.

I'd appreciate it if someone else running WAS would give
this a spin to  double-check me. If it checks out OK, I
would suggest that this doc replace the other two.
