Richard, Try using forward slashes in your docbase instead of '\' docBase="E:/Projects/HelloWorld" />
Java might otherwise interpret it as an escape char. -Richard -----Original Message----- From: Richard Morris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 10, 2003 4:03 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Hello World gone wrong Hi Adam, The HelloWorldMessageResources.properties file is where you have stated. I also tried your comment style in the properties file as well as removing all comments and it didn't change anything. I have also removed the application init-param from the web.xml file. As for the webapp DTD version, you are right about that. I had the wrong DTD in there and so modified it. Here are the DTDs I am using for both the web.xml and struts-config.xml files: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_3.dtd"> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.1//EN" "http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/struts-config_1_1.dtd"> As for the versions of tomcat and struts, I am using struts 1.1 (the one currently available for download from their web site). As for the tomcat versions, I have tried to run them under the following configurations: Tomcat Version: Apache Tomcat/4.1.29 JVM Version: 1.4.2_02-b03 JVM Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc. OS Name: Windows XP (Pro) OS Version: 5.1 OS Architecture: x86 and Tomcat Version: Apache Tomcat/4.1.27 JVM Version: 1.4.2_01-b06 JVM Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc. OS Name: Linux (Red Hat 9) OS Version: 2.4.20-8smp OS Architecture: i386 You are right about it being a simple app. I started with just a JSP page with plain html, then I added the html taglib. Everything worked fine but when I tried to use the bean taglib to use resource bundles, that's when I got this error. Would there be any changes that I would need to make to the tomcat server.xml configuration file to get this to work? I am just using the default configuration file with the added <Context path="/HelloWorld" reloadable="true" docBase="E:\Projects\HelloWorld" />. Anyway, thanks for whatever help you can send my way.
