> I need to elaborate a bit... Way to much work for me. The problem is that i don't need Tiles myself but i'm compiling information for a struts2+freemarker+spring+hibernate-course i'm giving. If tiles2.1 support for freemarker is not working the students will have to work with tiles2.0 (albeit not having wildcards hurts quite a bit. you really need one definition for every body content, don't you?).
So now i replaced the tiles2.1-libs with the tiles.2.0.6-libs, TilesListener with StrutsTilesListener and my wildcard definition with a non-wildcard definition. Unfortunately now i got a FreeMarker template error: Expression JspTaglibs is undefined on line 1, column 16 in layout/simpleLayout.ftl. The problematic instruction: ---------- ==> assignment: tiles=JspTaglibs["http://tiles.apache.org/tags-tiles";] [on line 1, column 1 in layout/simpleLayout.ftl] ---------- Java backtrace for programmers: ---------- freemarker.core.InvalidReferenceException: Expression JspTaglibs is undefined on line 1, column 16 in layout/simpleLayout.ftl. at freemarker.core.TemplateObject.assertNonNull(TemplateObject.java:124) at freemarker.core.DynamicKeyName._getAsTemplateModel(DynamicKeyName.java:75) at freemarker.core.Expression.getAsTemplateModel(Expression.java:89) .... <#assign tiles=JspTaglibs["http://tiles.apache.org/tags-tiles";]> doesn't seem to be loaded, so after reading http://cwiki.apache.org/WW/freemarker-tags.html this (look at the bottum) i add <servlet> <servlet-name>JspSupportServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.struts2.views.JspSupportServlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> to the web.xml. But now i get an StackOverflowError: description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request. exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Filter execution threw an exception root cause java.lang.StackOverflowError org.apache.tomcat.util.buf.C2BConverter.convert(C2BConverter.java:81) org.apache.catalina.connector.OutputBuffer.write(OutputBuffer.java:438) org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteWriter.write(CoyoteWriter.java:143) freemarker.ext.jsp.JspWriterAdapter.write(JspWriterAdapter.java:162) java.io.PrintWriter.write(Unknown Source) freemarker.ext.jsp.JspWriterAdapter.write(JspWriterAdapter.java:162) java.io.PrintWriter.write(Unknown Source) ..... What is missing now?
