I am getting this error returned to my browser when accessing 
http://10.1.1.1:8080/admin

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Cannot find message resources under key 
org.apache.struts.action.MESSAGE
        at 
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:254)
        at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:295)

        at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853)

This is from an out-of-the-box install i.e. I downloaded Tomcat version 4.1.29.tar.gz 
from http://jakarta.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi then unzipped and untarred the entire 
contents to my root directory.

I discovered that the reason for the error is that the servlet is unable to find 
"org.apache.webapp.admin.ApplicationServlet.class"

Turns out the tar file "appears" to contains a lot of very long pathnames which are 
truncated if they exceed 100 bytes e.g.

jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29/server/webapps/admin/WEB-INF/classes/org/apache/webapp/admin/ApplicationServle

I don't see a tar option that gets around this. Is this just my version of tar that's 
doing this? Or is it a problem with the tar file? Could someone verify it e.g. "tar 
tvf jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29.tar"
