StartForm can't find my form class

[Bill Pfeiffer]

I am just starting with struts and have written my first action and form classes as a test.   My test jsp is getting an exception when running that indicates that the struts form tag can't find my form bean.  I've included it successfully in the jsp with a page import directive, and the class is in the proper classes sub-dir of my web application.   Why can't struts see the class?   A snippet of the exception:   javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Exception creating bean of class com.bpcs.struts.TestStrutsForm: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.bpcs.struts.TestStrutsForm at org.apache.struts.taglib.FormTag.doStartTag(FormTag.java:506) at jsp._0002fjsp_0002fTestStruts_0002ejspTestStruts_jsp_2._jspService(_0002fjsp_0002fTestStruts_0002ejspTestStruts_jsp_2.java:97) at org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:119) Let me know if you need more info.  As I'm just starting with this I did not not exactly what to post!   TIA,   Bill Pfeiffer
