We had a similar issue. The problem was our struts config.xml file was not getting parsed correctly. For some reason, the top three header lines all wound up being on the same line (when viewed in note pad). We went in a placed hard returns to break up the lines (max length 80), and that resolved the problem.

I've googled on this issue quite a bit and know I am not the first to encounter it. I can't seem to find a direct suggestion of how to solve the problem, however. My application can't load the ActionServlet on startup. I'm coding this for WebLogic 7.0 at the moment, and will consider using Tomcat or JBoss (with Tomcat) as an alternative target to test out these issues. I've checked that struts.jar is within WEB-INF/lib. I'm probably seeing a configuration problem as I can successfully deploy and click through the struts-blank.war example. I'm working through various Struts tutorials and using a base configuration. Here's a copy of the relevant section from my web.xml: <servlet> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>config</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>debug</param-name> <param-value>2</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>detail</param-name> <param-value>2</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup> </servlet> I'm seeing the following exception when deploying the application: <8/10/2003 17:54:17> <Error> <HTTP> <101216> <Servlet: "action" failed to preload on startup in weba pp: "cepts" javax.servlet.UnavailableException: Parsing error processing resource path at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.handleConfigException(ActionServl et.j ava:1035) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.parseModuleConfigFile(ActionServl et.j ava:1014) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.initModuleConfig(ActionServlet.ja va:9 55) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.init(ActionServlet.java:470) Any help is appreciated. Lastly, could anyone recommend a good Struts book or favourite tutorial? The O'Reilly publication is what I'm opting towards now.
