Hello Łukasz: Thank you for prompt response. No, I was not using the DEFINITIONS_CONFIG - the tiles.xml was found fine in v2.5.30. When I add it via init-param to the struts filter it does not seem to make a difference however.
<filter> <filter-name>struts2</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>org.apache.tiles.definition.DefinitionsFactory.DEFINITIONS_CONFIG</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/tiles.xml</param-value> </init-param> </filter> Yes, I have deleted the work subfolder under Catalina home/base. Here is the output (for any line with tiles keyword plus the StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter) after I enabled trace level in log4j.xml: 2022-06-08 23:26:10,749 INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-55] tiles.StrutsTilesListener (StrutsTilesListener.java:37) - Starting Struts Tiles 3 integration ... 2022-06-08 23:26:10,805 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-55] tiles.StrutsTilesInitializer (StrutsTilesInitializer.java:43) - Initializing Tiles wildcard support ... 2022-06-08 23:26:10,855 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-55] tiles.StrutsTilesInitializer (StrutsTilesInitializer.java:50) - Creating dedicated Struts factory to create Tiles container 2022-06-08 23:26:11,086 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-55] tiles.StrutsWildcardServletApplicationContext (StrutsWildcardServletApplicationContext.java:117) - Using ResourceFinder to find matches for tiles*.xml 2022-06-08 23:26:11,126 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-55] tiles.StrutsWildcardServletApplicationContext (StrutsWildcardServletApplicationContext.java:129) - Found resources [Resource file:/C:/data/Documents/NetBeansProjects13/xxx-v6/target/xxx-v6-1.0-SNAPSHOT/WEB-INF/tiles.xml at file:/C:/data/Documents/NetBeansProjects13/xxx-v6/target/xxx-v6-1.0-SNAPSHOT/WEB-INF/tiles.xml] for path tiles*.xml [http-nio-8080-exec-55] INFO org.apache.tiles.access.TilesAccess - Publishing TilesContext for context: org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsWildcardServletApplicationContext 2022-06-08 23:28:34,062 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-58] filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter (StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter.java:126) - Checking if /app/account/view-summary.action is a static resource 2022-06-08 23:28:34,063 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-58] filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter (StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter.java:129) - Assuming uri /app/account/view-summary.action as a normal action 2022-06-08 23:28:34,082 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-58] filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter (StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter.java:139) - Found mapping ActionMapping{name='view-summary', namespace='/app/account', method='null', extension='action', params={}, result=null} for /app/account/view-summary.action 2022-06-08 23:28:34,385 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-58] tiles.TilesResult (TilesResult.java:135) - checking if tiles definition exists 'app.myAccount.viewSummary' 2022-06-08 23:28:34,388 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-58] tiles.TilesResult (TilesResult.java:142) - tilesDefinition not found yet, searching in action 2022-06-08 23:28:34,391 WARN [http-nio-8080-exec-58] tiles.TilesResult (TilesResult.java:154) - could not find @TilesDefinition for action: view-summary 2022-06-08 23:28:34,391 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-58] interceptor.I18nInterceptor (I18nInterceptor.java:143) - After action invocation Locale=en_US 2022-06-08 23:28:34,393 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-58] result.ServletDispatcherResult (ServletDispatcherResult.java:127) - Forwarding to location: /tiles/exception.jsp The trace output is the same for v6 as for v2.5.30 - except that in v2.5.30 the tile definition is found and the processing of the tile/jsp proceeds: 2022-06-08 22:31:11,779 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] tiles.TilesResult (TilesResult.java:135) - checking if tiles definition exists 'app.myAccount.viewSummary' 2022-06-08 22:31:12,427 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] components.UIBean (UIBean.java:1005) - Cannot determine id attribute for [org.apache.struts2.components.Head@64229854], consider defining id, name or key attribute! 2022-06-08 22:31:12,427 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] components.UIBean (UIBean.java:577) - Rendering template /template/xhtml/head 2022-06-08 22:31:12,453 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] template.FreemarkerTemplateEngine (FreemarkerTemplateEngine.java:119) - Rendering template: /template/xhtml/head.ftl 2022-06-08 22:31:12,508 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] template.FreemarkerTemplateEngine (FreemarkerTemplateEngine.java:151) - Push tag on top of the stack 2022-06-08 22:31:12,782 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] template.FreemarkerTemplateEngine (FreemarkerTemplateEngine.java:156) - Removes tag from top of the stack 2022-06-08 22:31:13,389 TRACE [http-nio-8080-exec-3] tiles.StrutsFreeMarkerAttributeRenderer (StrutsFreeMarkerAttributeRenderer.java:97) - Checking if path [/tiles/account/viewSummary.jsp] can be rendered 2022-06-08 22:31:14,036 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] components.UIBean (UIBean.java:1005) - Cannot determine id attribute for [org.apache.struts2.components.ActionMessage@7a766cb4], consider defining id, name or key attribute! 2022-06-08 22:31:14,038 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] components.UIBean (UIBean.java:577) - Rendering template /template/bootstrap/actionmessage 2022-06-08 22:31:14,059 DEBUG [http-nio-8080-exec-3] template.FreemarkerTemplateEngine (FreemarkerTemplateEngine.java:119) - Rendering template: /template/bootstrap/actionmessage.ftl ... etc .... Unfortunately I cannot find what the issue is so if anyone has any other tips that would be great. Can someone confirm their tiles with org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsTilesListener work in v6?

Do you use "org.apache.tiles.definition.DefinitionsFactory.DEFINITIONS_CONFIG" servlet init-param to define the definitions?
