Weblogic 5.1 and Struts 1.0, Classpath question
Well, After much frustration the past few nights I have finally managed to get the Struts 1.0 example application to work on WL5.1. The majority of my problems had to do with the classpath, which I never thought could be so irritating (Thierry Cools suggested not to put struts.jar in the classpath, so I did this and then it worked... Thanks!). My other problem was that I was using the JAXP parser from Sun, which apparently is not appropriate for Struts 1.0 and WL5.1. It was fine with 0.5, but 1.0 failed to load with many errors. Now I am using Xerces and things are much better. However, there is still a problem. If I put struts.jar in the WL classpath, the example application will not work. The app deploys and loads without errors, but when the first JSP is executed I get a "runtime failure in custom tag 'message'" error (see below). So the easy solution is just don't put struts.jar in the classpath. The problem is that it needs to be included because my session beans need a few classes that are included with struts.jar (probably not the ideal design, but this how I am doing things) such as ValidatingActionForm. Before I unzip things and try to include just what I need, I just wanted to see if anyone had any ideas why including this in the classpath is causing these problems. Both *.jars are identical, so I don't see why this makes a difference. I am not sure what this error means so I don't know where to begin. Any ideas? Thanks -Bob BTW - has anyone written (or in process or writing) installation notes regarding Struts1.0 and WL5.1? If not, I would be happy to help out and do this.

Re: Weblogic 5.1 and Struts 1.0, Classpath question
This may be caused by the cast exception problem: MessageTag code first gets tries to get the MessageResources from servletContext.getAttribute() It then cast the object returned to MessageResources this failure may be leading to your problem so I would suggest you try including the following sectoin into web.xml: context-param param-nameweblogic.jsp.precompile/param-name param-valuetrue/param-value /context-param --- Harit Nanavati [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have been trying the same thing.

Re: Weblogic 5.1 and Struts 1.0, Classpath question
I was using the struts 0.5 examples I did not unjar the main struts.jar file, I left that in the lib directory. Instead I unjarred the struts-example.war file modified the web.xml for the struts-example demo. Weblogic5.1 doesn't seem able to read ResourceBundles from a *.war file. I have not tried the 1.0 examples, if you are using those perhaps what I did those not apply. --- Harit Nanavati [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Just did that .. sturts.jar extracted. directory in WL classpath war file extrected. deleted starts.jar from lib directory added the addtional precomple lines in web.xml All the jsp compiles without problem.

RE: Weblogic 5.1 and Struts 1.0, Classpath question
Harit, 2) Do not unjar-the-war, or struts.jar :) 1) Do not put struts.jar in the weblogic classpath... Here is my output from wlconfig: WebLogic startup settings are presently: CLASSPATH Prefix c:\weblogic\lib\weblogic510sp8boot.jar;c:\java\xerces-1_2_3\tools\xerces.jar CLASSPATH c:\weblogic\lib\weblogic510sp8boot.jar;c:\java\xerces-1_2_3\tools\xerces.jar ;c:\weblogic\jre1_2\lib\tools.jar;c:\weblogic\jre1_2\jre\lib\rt.jar;c:\weblo gic\jre1_2\jre\lib\i18n.jar;C:\weblogic\license;C:\weblogic\classes\boot;C:\ weblogic\classes;C:\weblogic\lib\weblogicaux.jar;C:\weblogic\eval\cloudscape \lib\cloudscape.jar JAVA_HOME c:\weblogic\jre1_2 WEBLOGIC_LICENSEDIR C:\weblogic\license WEBLOGIC_HOME C:\weblogic system properties: java.security.manager java.security.policy==C:\weblogic\weblogic.policy weblogic.system.home=C:\weblogic java.compiler=symcjit weblogic.class.path=c:\weblogic\lib\weblogic510sp8.jar;C:\weblogic\license;C :\weblogic\classes;C:\weblogic\myserver\serverclasses;C:\weblogic\lib\weblog icaux.jar; INITIAL_HEAP8 MB MAX_HEAP32 MB SERVERCLASSPATH c:\weblogic\lib\weblogic510sp8boot.jar;c:\java\xerces-1_2_3\tools\xerces.jar ;c:\weblogic\jre1_2\jre\lib\rt.jar;c:\weblogic\jre1_2\jre\lib\i18n.jar;C:\we blogic\classes\boot;C:\weblogic\eval\cloudscape\lib\cloudscape.jar 4) You have added an entry in weblogic.properties for each application, right? i.e. weblogic.httpd.webApp.strutsexample=c:/java/jakarta-struts10/webapps/struts- example.war weblogic.httpd.webApp.strutsdocs=c:/java/jakarta-struts10/webapps/struts-doc umentation.war weblogic.httpd.webApp.strutstest=c:/java/jakarta-struts10/webapps/struts-tes t.war 5) Now start WL and let it extract the classes from the wars, then you need to open the war with winzip and extract only ApplicationResources.properties and put this with the other class files in the _tmp_war. 6) Restart WL and it should work.
