We are using Struts 1.1 in a WL 7.0 SP2 application, deployed as a .ear and everything
seems to be working fine. The only difference between our app and your app that I can
identify so far is that we are deploying our web app inside the .ear as an expanded
directory versus as a .war file.
So, for example, our app is:
theEar.ear
|-- META-INF
|-- theEjb.jar
|-- theWar
|--WEB-INF
|--lib
|--classes
and our application.xml is:
<application>
<display-name>webapp</display-name>
<description>webapp</description>
<module>
<ejb>webapp.jar</ejb>
</module>
<module>
<web>
<web-uri>webapp</web-uri>
<context-root>webapp</context-root>
</web>
</module>
It not supposed to make a difference, but perhaps expanding your web app would make a
difference?

Have you tried prefer-web-inf-classes?
The <prefer-web-inf-classes> element, if set to true, will cause classes located in
the WEB-INF directory of a Web application to be loaded in preference to classes
loaded in the application or system classloader. The default value is false. A value
specified in the console will take precedence over a value set manually.

Subject: Deploying web app (.ear = .jar + .war) under Weblogic with
Struts
Hello everyone,
this looks pretty like the mail posted by Navneet Saraogi a couple of
months ago.
I am trying to deploy a .ear application under Bea Weblogic 7.0 using
Struts 1.1.
What happens (funny) is that if I deploy my webapp.war (containing the web
module and Struts library) and webapp.jar (containing ejbs) at the same
time, everything works properly and the web application integrates happily
with ejbs.
But if I merge the two files into a .ear, it deploys correctly, but when I
launch the application I get the following error message:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/struts/action/ActionForm
since apparently it isn't able to find the path to the library struts.jar,
and of course the application does not work.
Our directory structure is apparently the correct one, and that is:
theEar.ear
|-- META-INF
|-- theEjb.jar
|-- theWar.war
inside the .ear I have a META-INF directory with application.xml that looks
like this:
<application>
<display-name>webapp</display-name>
<description>webapp</description>
<module>
<ejb>webapp.jar</ejb>
</module>
<module>
<web>
<web-uri>webapp.war</web-uri>
<context-root>webapp</context-root>
</web>
</module>
and the file struts.jar is inside the webapp.war file at the path
\WEB-INF\lib, while the other developed classes are at the path
\WEB-INF\classes.
I also tried inserting Class-Path: webapp.jar inside \META-INF\MANIFEST.MF
in the webapp.war file, to make it see the ejbs, but it still does not
work.
Anyone has any idea of what I am missing ?
Thank you,
