Hi,

Thank you, you point the problem. I did not have the Control Servlet. I
added it and now it works well. I had the mainDecorator section but not the
filter associated and I was getting a NPE from the VisitHandler.

For my information, what does this control servlet do ? And what's the
difference between the mainDecorator and the view-map (name=main) I declare
in controller.xml ? (In fact, if you know which doc I can read about it).

I think we can improve the tutorial by adding a few words on this.

Cheers
