As your serlvet-mapping is setted to "<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>" every request is handled by Struts.
Struts RequestProcessor extracts the extension to get the action path to process. request = "/MyWebApp/pages/graphics/MyPicture.gif" When your request is handled, they're is no action-mapping for "/MyWebApp/pages/graphics/MyPicture" You should use ".do" url-pattern for Struts actions, so that other types are directly handled by HTTP server (or container) Nico. > > Hello, > > > I am having a simple problem regarding image displaying in a web > application (.war). > > > My directory structure is: > > MyWebApp.war > - META-INF > - WEB-INF > - pages > - graphics > - MyPicture.gif > - layout > - upperBar.jsp > > > The problem is: HOW to display MyPicture.gif from upperBar.jsp? > > > I tried this: > > <html:img pageKey="graphics.MyPicture"/> > > > In properties file I have: > > graphics.MyPicture=/pages/graphics/MyPicture.gif > > > This works fine -- HTML generated contains this: > > <img src="/MyWebApp/pages/graphics/MyPicture.gif"> > > > Unfortunately, when the browser tries to download the image I get this: > > 2003-07-17 15:17:05 org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor process > INFO: Processing a 'GET' for path '/pages/graphics/MyPicture' > 2003-07-17 15:17:05 org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor processMapping > SEVERE: Invalid path /pages/graphics/MyPicture was requested > > > There are two questions arising here: > > > 1).
