Andy,
I can help you with the logging, you're right that it will greatly assist you
in debugging your app.
In the mean time I can point out two things that might help.
1. I'll paste an adaption of your tiles-defs that uses "extends" to make it a
little simpler
2. Try copying the contents of your jsp off to the side and replacing with
something simple like "hello world". This should get rid of the error. Then
line or group of lines at a time, copy your content back to the page and
refresh. When the error reappears, you will have found the line causing the
problem.
Here is tiles-defs.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> <!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
"-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 2.1//EN"
"http://tiles.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_1.dtd";>

'/layouts/template.jsp'.
Hi Brian/Antonio,
Thanks to both of you for responding . . .
Brian, I think now would be a good time to "revisit" my logging . . .
to make sure that it is being written properly. I strongly suspect
that once the logging is working correctly I'll be able to overcome
issues myself . . . . . and won't have to bother you and Antonio . .
. but to answer your questions:
Here is template.jsp:
