Global-forwards are not necessary to be defined. It will work even without it. And the URL pattern can be anything (even other than *.do). Important is that it should be mapped with some servlet name.
So I guess changing these will not have any impact. Still I did the correction you suggested. And I am still getting same error. -----Original Message----- From: Murray Collingwood [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 21, 2005 4:21 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: Null Pointer exception when using struts html tag library in jsp file struts-config.xml Global-forwards are the application entry points. You don't have any defined. Mine look like this: <global-forwards> <forward name="Home" path="/Home.do" /> <forward name="Setup" path="/Setup.do" /> </global-forwards> web.xml Your servlet mapping is weird, normally you would specify something like: <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> <url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> Maybe, I'm still thinking in Struts 1.2.7 (having not used 1.1). Have you looked at some example 1.1 applications? I started with one from JohnTopley, it's a good starting point for getting something running and then you can grow from there.
