struts-config.xml but if for some reason the database cant be accessed ....

Subject: URI is null error on ActionForward
I have a really simple action forward just like many I've used in the past.
I am getting this error on JRun 3.1 EE. I have included an excerpt from my
struts-config.xml and my action class to see if you y'all see something I
just do not...I just added the redirect="true" and it does the same thing.
Thanks for any help you can give me here! :-)

My struts config excerpt follows:
<!-- ========== Action Mapping Definitions
============================== -->
<action-mappings>
<!-- Create Category action -->
<action path="/AddCategory"
type="com.rrlures.struts.AddCategory"
name="categoryForm"
scope="request"
input="/catalog/admin.jsp">
<forward name="success"
path="/catalog/admin-updated.jsp"
redirect="true" />
</action>
</action-mappings>
My action class forwards like such:
// Set our utility objects
HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
MessageResources messages = getResources();
CategoryForm form = (CategoryForm)actionForm;
request.setAttribute("formxml", form.getXml());
getServlet().getServletContext().log("Forwarding to success.");
return (new ActionForward("success"));
