Sangeetha, Your error suggests a redirect is occurring, not a forward. A tile cannot be seen from the web, only from inside the struts framework, hence that error messager.
I recommend you replace the contents of your welcome file with code to pull in and insert the tile, which goes something like this, but don't quote me on it. (I'd posted about this in the archives months ago): <%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-tiles" prefix="tiles" %> <tiles:insert definition="LoginPage"/> Regards, David -----Original Message----- From: vpsangeetha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 04, 2004 12:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Newbie-Q regarding tiles Hi, I have a very basic question wrt tiles. I have a tiles-def.xml defined in the /WEB-INF/ directory with 1 of the definitions being <definition name="LoginPage" extends="baseDef"> <put name="body" value="/login.jsp"/> </definition> I want the first page of my application to use this definition. So in my web.xml, I define the welcome file and all this file has is <logic:forward name="login" /> In the struts-config.xml, I have <global-forwards> <forward name="login" path="LoginPage" /> </global-forwards> But I get the error HTTP ERROR: 404 /alarmagent/LoginPage Not Found Any idea why this is happening? And does anyone know a way around it? Thanks & sorry if the q is very trivial.
