Re: Hello World gone wrong

Hi Richard, you don't need to package it. I have never packaged a 
resources file or put it in a jar seperately. According to your config, 
it's in the right place, something like 
e:\projects\helloworld\WEB-INF\classes\HelloWorldMessageResources.properties 
right? The error must lie elsewhere.

I can't see why. Your app is so simple, it's got to be a gotcha.

Perhaps the comments in the file are not allowed - I always use
/* comment */
Also, that action servlet parameter 'application' is deprecated, I think.

You could put this in the struts-config message-resources node:

factory="org.apache.struts.util.PropertyMessageResourcesFactory"

BTW what version of struts and tomcat are you using? I see you've got a 
reference to the webapp_2.2 dtd in your web.xml. I don't suppose you can 
upgrade to at least have a servlet 2.3 container?

I do have the properties file located in the /WEB-INF/classes directory.
When I couldn't get it to work using this method, I tried putting the
properties into a package and then jar'ed it and put the jar in the
/WEB-INF/lib directory.  It still couldn't find the properties file.
I am using the default tomcat configuration with the following server.xml
addition:
<Context path="/HelloWorld" reloadable="true"
docBase="E:\Projects\HelloWorld" />

Have you got your HelloWorldMessageResources.properties file deployed in
the WEB-INF/classes directory? That is where you have specified that it
is, since you have given no path to such as org.myapp.HelloWorldMess...
