Hi there, I am having some diffiulty with this simple
struts app(ah the irony). I am able to get the web
application to load from the URL http://127.0.0.1/project661
and the form presented. However when I hit the submit button
in the form I get a 404 from the URL
http://127.0.0.1/project661/registration
Now I have looked at a few examples with the struts-
resume project from appfuse and I can't see anything
that I am doing drasticly different from it. The struts
action mapping does match the value in the ACTION attribute
of the form. The <servlet-mapping> in should pickup
/project661/registration.
My suspision is that it concerns the tomcat configuration. I have
not really altered the sever xml. I have supplied a context.xml with
the webapp and this is being picked up since the I can see the access
log in the $CATALINA_HOME/logs being generated. Do I require a <Host>
element in my context.xml or should the <Host name="localhost"> in
server.xml suffice?
Any help greatly appreciated :-)
