This is an odd scenario, but I've repeated it several times, just to make sure.
I'm using Tomcat 4.0.4b2. I have a simple Struts application, which I got mostly working with Struts 1.1b2. In my Ant "deploy" target, before copying the WAR, I use a command-line interface to the Manager app to "stop" the application, then I copy the WAR, and then use the same command-line app to "start" the application. This was working fine when my Struts application was using the binary release of Struts 1.1b2. I then installed all the latest CVS code for Struts and Commons and built it all. In my application source tree, I have a "weblib" directory that I store the jars my application is using. I renamed the existing directory that had the jars from Struts 1.1b2, and created a new one, then copied in all the newly built Struts & Commons jars, and then I rebuilt and redeployed the application. At this point, my application is seeing one problem with finding message resources, which I'm still trying to figure out, and which I'm asking about on the Struts list. However, I'm seeing another symptom that seems to only involve Tomcat, but it only occurs when I switch to building with the latest Struts/Commons. It doesn't occur when the application is built with the binary Struts 1.1b2 release. The issue is that when I rerun the application after restarting it through the Manager, I get the following exception (truncated): javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Exception forwarding for name main: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor at org.apache.struts.taglib.logic.ForwardTag.doEndTag(ForwardTag.java:180) at org.apache.jsp.index$jsp._jspService(index$jsp.java:77) at org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:107) This doesn't happen if I restart Tomcat (I just get the messages problem). -- =================================================================== David M.
