Hi Ganesh, Listing down what all has to be done to display error message when you are using resource bundle and tiles definition.
This is a very simple example which should give you a picture of how to go about it. application.properties ( The resource bundle file ) error.auth.failure=Error:Not authorized to access this page. Including a snippet of an example Action class. public final class UserConfAction extends DispatchAction { public ActionForward addUser(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception { try { authMgr.createUser(sessionKey, user); } catch (AuthException aex) { // Code to handle container based error condition. ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors(); errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new ActionError("error.auth.failure")); saveErrors(request,errors); <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> return mapping.findForward("failure"); } return mapping.findForward("success"); } } struts configuration file ( struts-config.xml ) <action path="/UserConfig" type="com.action.main.UserConfAction" scope="request" parameter="method" > <forward name="success" path="Success"/> <forward name="failure" path="Failure"/> </action> tiles defintion file ( tiles-defs.xml ) <!-- Definition for the Failure --> <definition name="Failure" extends="configBaseDef"> <put name="top" value="/WEB-INF/pages/top.jsp"/> <put name="body" value="/WEB-INF/pages/userconf.jsp"/> <put name="top" value="/WEB-INF/pages/bottom.jsp"/> </definition> Say the error message to be displayed will be in the body part of this layout. So, in the userconf.jsp you need to have something like this <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %> <!-- Error Block --> <tr> <td align="center" colSpan="2"> <html:errors/> </td> <tr> Hope this should give you a fair idea on how to do the implementation.
