Ah, I am sorry. I forgot to mention that I had tried different combinations of URLs. I did try http://localhost:8080/ginsu/ginsu.do and I get the same tomcat error as when I enter http://localhost:8080/ginsu .
I also realize how vague I was. I'll try to be more specific: I am using Tomcat 4.1.18, and I get a 404 with a description of "The requested resource is not available" when I try these different URLs. I went back to my %CATALINA_HOME%/webapp/ginsu directory and discovered that my struts-config.xml file was there. I think this is incorrect. The web.xml file and the struts-config.xml file both need to reside in my %CATALINA_HOME%/webapps/ginsu/WEB-INF directory, correct? So I moved the slide-config.xml to the web-inf directory and restarted tomcat and received the same results. Any further thought? Thanks again, and I appreciate the fast responses. --- "Craig R.
