As Richard mentioned your xml is wrong. Try this...
I assume you have the header information or else it would be a different
error.;-)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class>
<!--Below is the init-param-->
<!--This defines where your application resources are located.-->
<!--It uses the classloader to find the file.-->
<!--The ".properties" extension isn´t used to locate resources.-->
<init-param>
<param-name>application</param-name>
<param-value>helloworld.HelloWorldResources</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<!--This section defines what file to open first if none is specified
-->
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>hello.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
<!--The following section defines a URI to use to retrieve the struts
taglib -->
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
</web-app>
Notice, that <welcome-file-list></welcome-file-list> comes before the
<taglib></taglib>.
Richard was saying that XMLSpy would inform you of your error as it did. Now
you have to fix it. Move your welcome-file-list above the taglib.
Here is what Richard referred to in the DTD...
<!ELEMENT web-app (icon?, display-name?, description?, distributable?,
context-param*, servlet*, servlet-mapping*, session-config?,
mime-mapping*, welcome-file-list?, error-page*, taglib*,
resource-ref*, security-constraint*, login-config?, security-role*,
env-entry*, ejb-ref*)>
This means that welcome-file-list comes before a taglib. Hope that's more
clear.
