I finally got it. The challenge here is for people using Java 1.4.X is that the sample apps come with the Java 5 jars.The java 4 jars can be found at http://apache.tradebit.com/pub/struts/library/struts-2.0.1-j4.zip I extracted them to here:
C:\java\struts2\struts-2.0.1\j4\ But, the only file I needed from here was struts2-extras-j4-2.0.0.jar . copy C:\java\struts2\struts-2.0.1\j4\struts2-extras-j4-2.0.0.jar C:\java\eclipse\workspace\struts2-blank-2.0.1\WebContent\WEB-INF\lib as I got the backport files from the nightlies: http://people.apache.org/builds/jakarta-struts/nightlies/2.0.x/java-1.4/backport/ which i copied the backport files to C:\java\eclipse\workspace\struts2-blank-2.0.1\WebContent\WEB-INF\lib Then i modified the translate.bat as follows: java -jar retrotranslator-transformer-1.0.8.jar -srcjar struts2-core-2.0.1.jar -destjar struts2-core-j4-2.0.1.jar java -jar retrotranslator-transformer-1.0.8.jar -srcjar struts2-api-2.0.1.jar -destjar struts2-api-j4-2.0.1.jar java -jar retrotranslator-transformer-1.0.8.jar -srcjar xwork-2.0-beta-1 -destjar xwork-2.0-j4.jar The key thing is after the translate takes place to remove the following files: * struts2-core-2.0.1.jar * struts2-api-2.0.1.jar * xwork-2.0-beta-1 Again, a Java 5 version of struts2-extras-j4-2.0.0.jar was not in the struts2-blank-2.0.1 war. In Summary, my lib folder contains the following jars for 1.4.x: --- commons-collections-3.1 ---commons-beanutils-1.6 --- commons-digester-1.6 --- commons-logging-1.0.4 --- freemarker-2.3.4 --- spring-aop-1.2.8 --- spring-context-1.2.8 --- spring-web-1.2.8 --- retrotranslator-runtime-1.0.8 --- retrotranslator-transformer-1.0.8 --- ognl-2.6.7 --- spring-beans-1.2.8 --- spring-core-1.2.8 --- struts2-core-j4-2.0.1 --- struts2-api-j4-2.0.1 --- xwork-2.0-j4 ---struts2-extras-j4-2.0.0 --- backport-util-concurrent --- translate.bat
The error message you're quoting implies that there was an error during startup of the web application. Did you check your logs?
It sounds like maybe you're adding the J4 jars, but not removing the Java 5 versions of those jars. What's the complete listing of your WEB-INF/lib when you try to run the applications?
