MIssingResourceException comes form the code that handles ResourceBundles, a
feature for making your code work with several different languages. 

The exception below shows that your code is looking for a file (text file)
with the format key-value,  key-value... (there the key matches part of your
code, see your ResourceBundle.java, line 559). The file is in your case
called LocalStrings_en.properties and this file MUST be loaded in the
classloader. In my Tomcat 3.2.1 installation this file is available in the
tomcat/webapps/WEB-INF/classes directory, so it should be available.   

Read more in the Java 1.3 javadoc, see:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/index.html under
java.util.ResourceBundle, it is very well explained there. Another great
source is
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/i18n/resbundle/concept.html where
this is explained very good. 


This is how my LocalStrings_en.properties looks:

Subject: java.util.MissingResourceException error ... please help!


Tomcat newbie question.

I have installed and configured tomcat 3.2.3 on a linux server.
I used the rpm distribution from the jakarta web site.
I am running tomcat as a stand-alone, accessing it through
localhost:8080
All the servlet examples under ~tomcat/webapps/examples work fine.

I created another directory under webapps, ~tomcat/webapps/helpdesk and
below there I created the same directory tree as fown under "examples".
The following simple servlet core

// HelloWorld Servlet
 
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
 
public class HelloWorld extends HttpServlet {
 
  public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
                   throws IOException, ServletException {
    response.setContentType("text/html");
    PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
    out.println("<html>");
    out.println("<body bgcolor=#FFFFFF>");
    out.println("<head>");
    out.println("<title>Hello World!</title>");
    out.println("</head>");
    out.println("<body>");
    out.println("<h1>Hello World!</h1>");
    out.println("<b>This is DS ...</b>");
    out.println("</body>");
    out.println("</html>");
  }
} 
 

worked fine, but the HelloWorldExample (the one found under examples)
gives me the error below.
Could anyone please point me to the right direction, so solve this
problem?  It may be sometihng very simple I am missing in the
configuration.

Thank you! - Demetrios
