I am trying to run my first Struts -- using the tutorial "Login" example at http://www.javaranch.com/newsletter/Mar2002/newslettermar2002.jsp#struts
There is a MessageResources.properties file that allows for all strings displayed in an application to be defined. Nonetheless, After I entered http://localhost:8080/struts/jsp/LoginView.jsp in the browser address bar, I got HTTP Status 500 --missing key title.login. However, "title.login" is in the MessageResources.properties and is not empty. Therefore, I hard coded the text of the key title.login in the LoginView.jsp and re-ran this Login example. I got another HTTP Status 500. This time, the error message said that the next key "heading.login" in the MessageResources.properties is missing. Henceforth, I concluded that the Tomcat cannot find the MessageResources.properties file. I have checked MessageResources.properties: 1. name of the file: spelling is correct 2. location of the file: it is in the directory together with all compiled servlet class files; i.e. c:\tomcat\webapps\struts\WEB-INF\classes\test\struts 3. type of the file: the Windows Explorer shows the type of the MessageResources.properties file is a PROPERTIES File 4. mapping of the MessageResources.properties file: it does not seem to be wrong. I need your experience in telling what else could go wrong. Please help. The contents of the web.xml file that is in the c:\tomcat\webapps\struts\WEB-INF directory is shown below: code: ------------------------------------------------------- <?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> <!-- Action Servlet Configuration --> <servlet> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>application</param-name> <param-value>test.struts.MessageResources</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>mapping</param-name> <param-value>org.apache.struts.action.RequestActionMapping</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>config</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>debug</param-name> <param-value>2</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup> </servlet> <!-- Action Servlet Mapping --> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> <url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <!-- Struts Tag Library Descriptors --> <taglib> <taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld</taglib-uri> <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld</taglib-location> </taglib> <taglib> <taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld</taglib-uri> <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld</taglib-location> </taglib> <taglib> <taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld</taglib-uri> <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld</taglib-location> </taglib> <taglib> <taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld</taglib-uri> <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld</taglib-location> </taglib> </web-app> ------------------------------------------------------- . __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
