Thanks for the responses. I'm obviously missing some basic JSP debugging skills ;) Although I've been working on a "50% Struts" app for a year+ (i.e. tons of scriptlet code in JSPs), I've only just started using Struts properly with ActionForm's and taglibs so I'm still a noob when it comes to debugging JSPs.
When you say, "look further down the trace", do you mean the stack trace I forwarded in my posting or some other stack dump? I don't see anything labelled "root cause" in that trace. -----Original Message----- From: Chen, Gin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 3:35 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: JspException: Exception thrown by getter for property XXX of bean YYY? look further down the trace. there's a line that says root cause. the exception after that is your true error. -Tim -----Original Message----- From: Viggio, Alex [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 5:19 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: JspException: Exception thrown by getter for property XXX of bean YYY? We've had some additions to our production Struts app out for two months, and today is the first time I have seen this specific error (see below). I've includded the getter method below. How could an exception be thrown by this method? It should handle the case where previousUrl is null. Thanks, - Alex *** code *** public String getPreviousUrl() { return ((null != previousUrl) ?
