Hello list! I have gotten frustrated enough that I am wondering whether anyone here can enlighten me on this bizarre problem.
I am using the standard web.xml and struts-config.xml without any modification; for example, those that come with the blank application. When I start Tomcat with Struts 1.1b2 and Tiles Plugin on RedHat 7.1 and JDK 1.4 (on my host's webserver, which uses Ensim's virtual private server), catalina.out shows the following exception trace. When I comment out the Tiles plugin in struts-config.xml, the exception disappears and everything runs fine . So I know this security problem must be related with the Tiles plugin. I have tried tweaking Java/Tomcat's policy file to no avail (e.g. granting everything AllPermission in catalina.policy doesn't seem to help; but again, perhaps I am not doing this correctly). If this problem can be resolved by tweaking the Java/Tomcat policy files appropriately, can any java-security-experienced user help shed some light? Where and what sorts of security policy entries should I add? What is odd, though, is that using the same Struts and Tiles setup on my own W2K machine, everything starts beautifully. No tweaking of anything is necessary. Thanks a bunch!
