"Servlet action is not available" almost always means that some exception was thrown as the Struts action servlet was first initialized. The exception will be logged in one of the Tomcat log files ($CATALINA_HOME/logs/*). In your particular case, the most likely problem is trying to use the Struts data source. This functionality was deprecated in Struts 1.1, and was removed in Struts 1.2. You should use the JNDI data sources provided by your container (Tomcat) instead. There is pretty reasonable documentation on the Tomcat web site for how to set this stuff up, which applies to all webapps, not just Struts based ones. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html Historical note -- the only reason Struts 1.0 supplied a data source implementation in the first place was that, six years ago, most servlet containers did not support JNDI based resource access. Now that they (essentially) all do support JNDI, that is the recommended mechanism for managing data sources. Craig
