Hi Hue,
I am aware of that article but have been following this one:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-01-2002/jw-0104-tilestrut.html?
as my model. It's even simpler -- it just displays a templated page. The
mapping only needs an action and a forward (and path, of course.)
I can get the article's example working, and I can even get my tiles
definition working in the example app. But the example app uses Struts 1.0,
with 1.0-style Tiles configuration. My own example, which I haven't fixed
yet, uses 1.1.
Have you been using 1.1?
Thanks for your suggestions.

Hi Alayne,
>From one tiles newbie to another...
The general format of the <action...> for tiles is shown below:
<action-mappings>
<!-- Action mapping for profile form -->
<action path="/profileInput"
type="com.caraveltech.ex2.ProfileAction"
name="profileForm"
scope="request"
input="tile.profileInput"
validate="true">
<forward name="success" path="tile.profileOutput"/>
</action>
</action-mappings>
Where "input" is the tiles definition to be displayed.
This was from a lovely little training app by Wellie Chao that I found
personally very useful when learning tiles obtained from IBM's site:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-strutstiles.html
Apologies if you're already aware of this article ... it provides some
really nice, simple worked examples of tiles with struts and comes with
downloadable source and interestingly a nice coverage of "ant" - if you've
not used that before also.
Hue.

Oops, meant to include the error message (404 error):
The requested resource (/tilesproj/.mydefinition) is not available.
mydefinition is in my tiles-defs.xml, but struts is apparently thinking it
should be a file in my web app directory.
The JSP files I'm specifying do all exist.
I'm currently figuring out how to configure tomcat logging (tomcat newbie
too) but maybe the above info will tell you something?
Thanks.

Hi,
What is the error ? Also check the output in the tomcat error log file.
