A note to all websphere users, i just resolved my problems with servlets mapping.
there is a .../WebSphere/AppServer/config/plugin-cfg.xml, make sure all your server and web applications that you installed/configured via the console are visible here. Unfortunately my console did not update this file and I was clueless as to what was going wrong. rajiv -----Original Message----- From: Adolfo Miguelez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 12, 2002 4:58 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Deploying Struts on WebSphere Application Server 4.0.2 I am not surprised that you have quite a lot of problems with the parsers. We did also. However, once solved, it works nicely. We follow instructions in: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/installation-was352.html Actually, the 2 core points are: - You must download JAXP 1.0.1 (look for it in the web) for struts 1.0.x. Remove the packages startng with org.w3c.* and make a new package. Otherwise it would conflict with IBM XMl Parser for Java that VAJ ships. For WAS, I think you can install it directly. (Just try). - For Struts 1.1b1, the parser is Xerces 1.4.4. Do the same approach, remove org.w3c.* for VAJ and install directly for WAS. Struts rely on different parser that VAJ or WAS ships so you must include the new packages in your classpath. However, for VAJ, you can not import in the workspace versions of packages already existant, so you must remove them of your parser proyect before import them. - You need also a patch in org.apache.struts.taglib.html.FormTag.doEndTag(). Replace // Remove the page scope attributes we created pageContext.removeAttribute(Constants.BEAN_KEY, PageContext.REQUEST_SCOPE); pageContext.removeAttribute(Constants.FORM_KEY, PageContext.REQUEST_SCOPE); by // Remove the page scope attributes we created pageContext.getRequest().removeAttribute(Constants.BEAN_KEY); pageContext.getRequest().removeAttribute(Constants.FORM_KEY); pageContext.removeAttribute(Constants.BEAN_KEY); pageContext.removeAttribute(Constants.FORM_KEY); It seems to be a IBM VM bug as it complaints that can not remove attributes from request scope. The fix works fine. Try this things and get back if you are not able to get it working. I think it should. Hope it helps.
