There is no such thing as a general purpose answer to these questions.
The most important response is that the container does ***not*** treat
Struts-based applications anhy differently than any other web application.
So, I can only describe for you how Tomcat 4 approaches the issues:
* The web server, once notified that a new webapp is being proposed
for deployment, will examine the web.xml file for that webapp, to
determine whether there are any syntactic or semantic errors that are
fatal to application startup.
* If the container finds no problems, one of the common convntions is
that any "load on startp" servlets that you have defined in the web.xml
file will be initialzed. Any problems loading these servlets will cause
the applixcation deployment to fail.
In ***all*** circumstances, you should examine the log files emitted by
your application server for details about the specific problem that you
are encunteringg.
