Probably a bit late here.  However, I have been using Struts 1.0 on Jboss
2.2.2 and Tomcat 3.2.2 for a few months now and it works like a charm!  I
have migrated to Jboss 2.4.1 and Tomcat 3.2.3 with no effort at all, I
simply dropped in the new servers and re-deployed my ear file.  

The only thing that I found tricky was the initial setup of the build.xml
file.  The app.jar file contains all EJB code.  The lib/app-client.jar file
contains all the interface code.  And the app.war file contains a normal
tomcat deployable war file including the full file structure and classes of
the application (minus EJB and interfaces).

So in the end, I currently have a >200 class and >100 jsp system using all
the taglibs and struts components, and I have never received a class not
foud exception that wasn't deserved.

Good luck, I hope this helps and any questions are welcome.

Later,
Jake T.

Subject: The final word on struts and jboss 2.2.2 and tomcat 3.2.2


I'd like to confirm from the Struts Authorities, that indeed, struts 
doesn't quite-work-right with tomcat 3.2.2 and jboss 2.2.2.  (Classloader 
problems and sundry "'class not found" exceptions). Does jboss-2.4.1a and 
Tomcat-3.2.3 solve the problem?

I've seen a few posts on this topic:

This one suggests that Tomcat 3.3 makes the problem disappear:

This one suggests a workaround which involves precompiling the jsp pages:

This one suggests dropping back to tomcat 3.2.1

thanks in advance,
