Hi All,
Good news and bad news.
The good news is that I have worked with Tomcat and struts and I can now
run the 'Hello World'
example. So, I am going to close off this thread.
The bad news is that when it runs, the application gives a stack trace.
But at least I can run it
now. I will start a new thread for the stack trace.
Thank you for all the comments.
Regards,
Jim A.

I have used the web.xml file, unchanged, from the tutorial area. Here is
the content, where the line numbers are
inserted by my editor and are not part of the file:

I can see there is some struts filtering, but at this point I do not know
if something needs to be changed.

Hello All,
I am an experienced programmer, but inexperienced in web
programming and a total newbie to struts.
Struts looks like it will be very useful to my web programming so
I have ventured into the tutorials to
start learning how to use it. I ran the first tutorial
'basic_struts' successfully. Next, I am trying to
run the 'Hello World' tutorial, but it is failing. I could use
some suggestions on what may be wrong and
some suggestions on debug methodology when using struts. Or at
least pointers on where to looking
for debugging techniques. I am trying to do some reading to teach
myself, but I'm floundering at this
point.
I'm running crunchbang Linux, using firefox 30.0, which is close
to the latest edition. By the way, I'm
aware of the firefox 'web console' but a beginner with that tool
so I have not taken advantage of it so far.
I'm running the tomcat6 server on my localhost.
I have read the tutorial for 'Hello World' from:
*
*file:///usr/share/struts/struts-2.3.16.3/docs/hello-
world-using-struts-2.html
I have read each step in that tutorial and verified that the
source code explained in the tutorial
is in my sand box. I ran 'mvn clean project' and got a successful
build. Then then copied the
hello_world.war file to:
* * /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/hello_world
*
*enter the URL:
http://localhost:8080/hello_world/index.action
in the address box on Firefox and got the following error from
tomcat:
----------------Start Error
Window------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------
HTTP Status 404 - /hello_world/index.action
------------------------------------------------------------
------------
*type* Status report
*message* _/hello_world/index.action_
*description* _The requested resource (/hello_world/index.action)
is not available._
------------------------------------------------------------
------------
Apache Tomcat/6.0.35
-------------------End Error Window
------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------
My other webapps run ok out of /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps, so I at
least know my environment is set up
correctly, at least for the most part. When I check directory
permissions from the /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/hello_world
directory, I get:
% ls -ld . *
drwxr-xr-x 2 jimA jimA 4096 Jul 2 09:15 .
-rw-r--r-- 1 jimA jimA 3991999 Jul 4 15:29 hello_world.war
I thought about attaching the hello_world.war file, but because it
is 4M-bytes, I decided not to. If someone would like
to see it, I can provide it or a portion of it.
I feel like there is an obvious error in my set up, but I cannot
see it. Can anyone offer some suggestions?
Regards,
Jim Anderson
