Yes, this is the name of the class. I checked this 100s of times, even copying and 
pasting the package and class name from the .java file. I'm sure this is correct.
 
I have Struts logging turned up to #6 but that isn't putting out any messages. There 
is very little in the JSP so I don't think that logging directly from the JSP would 
help. There is no "body" to the JSP.

"com.client.form.simpleForm" ?

or is supposed to have a capital 'S': "com.client.form.SimpleForm" ?

Have you tried putting any logging statements into the simplePage.jsp (just sys-outs 
would work)? You should put a few in so that you can see exactly where/when the 
exception is occuring...it may even be thrown before the JSP is actually executed.

peace,
Joe
