I've got production apps running on 1.1 RC2 on WAS 4, so I would hope that means it is possible to do so. ;^) BTW, I didn't make any changes to the struts code for WAS 4, so that's not your problem. OTOH, looking at my copy of the RC2 source it would seem you are indeed running a later version than I am, so try the RC2 build and see what happens. Looking at the error, I would say something is wrong with your configuration. For brevity, I will assume your XML syntax and struts-config.xml content are OK, but this could still be a couple things... a) Your properties files are not on your classpath b) It can't locate the DTD, although this is more likely to throw a SAX exception. You can eliminate this factor at any rate by keeping a copy of the DTD in your WEB-INF folder and chainging your DOCTYPE declaration as follows: <!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.1//EN" "struts-config_1_1.dtd"> David Hibbs Staff Programmer / Analyst Distributed Applications Development and Support American National Insurance Company > -----Original Message----- > From: Andrew Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 7:22 AM > To: Struts Users Mailing List > Subject: RE: Is it possible to use struts 1.1 with WebSphere 4? > > > Its b3 if I recall rightly.
