How have you got jetspeed installed?
Is it on the root context - ie if you specify no directory in your
url, does it loads jetspeed?
Is it in the webapps directory of tomcat?
Sounds like it is neither of these, given your problems, assuming you
have installed it in a context of /foo, then the action should just
be /foo.
Alternatively, maybe there is a typo in your generated code - have
you looked at the source of your generated webpage - does it look
good?
Have you tried entering the action url directly - that should help
identify if the problem is the generated html or the web server
config.
