grails, http://grails.codehaus.org might be a better choice as it links into several standard java projects (specifically spring and hibernate) w/o you having to learn them up front. Groovy might be a better conceptual fit if you're coming from a 4gl background as well.

And do invest an afternoon in setting up Subversion, even if you are
working alone. Your future self will thank you :)

Well okay, the Apache live in a desert, but that didn't sound as good for a
subject line.

I'm trying to figure out which Apache products to use to easily build a
database application where the users would access the system via a web
browser.  From several hours of reading descriptions of various Apache
products, it seems like Struts might be the way to go, but I'm not sure.

My background is as a RAD database developer (Remedy & xBase, specifically)
who's read a couple of Java books.  I also have some network engineering
skills.

I'm looking for some kind of RAD suite/framework that will produce a highly interactive client-side interface for the users. If possible, I'd like the
application to be DBE independent.  My long-range goal is to deliver to
customers turnkey servers that are 100% open source.

I know this is pretty vague, but can anyone point me in the right direction?

TIA,
--Phil
