It's definitely different from Tomcat, and OC4J (that is: an enhanced version of the Orion server) configuration can be confusing sometimes (whole lot of unfamiliar files, and the only reference manuals your're given is a quick chart, at least when I was confronted with OC4J for the first time). But then, it's really nice. And there's no problem with Struts 1.1 at all. Note that the Java part of iAS 9i comes in several different flavors, one built into JDeveloper, one to be run standalone (OC4J, nearly identical to Orion) and then the iAS itself which the J2EE container is but part of. Then, considering Struts, to the web container it's just another servlet, basically. So in the end, I wouldn't consider your position as 'unfortunate'. Let's say 'challenging' (and don't forget you can add Oracle iAS experience to your CV afterwards :-)) > 1) figured out how to get 9iAS Release2 to work with Struts1.1, > > Or else: > > 2) can share any insights on how they got around similar problems, it > would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Well, Struts and Oracle iAS run together in complete harmony ;-) If you have JDev 9i (9.0.3), Oracle even shipped this version with the beta version (2, IIRC) of Struts 1.1 (the iAS 9i CDs still come with 9.0.2). If you have a specific problem (and my limited time allows), I may help you if I can, but first, you have to come clear about what exactly your problem is, including the iAS version and general setup you're using. -- Chris. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
