Note that the "index.jsp" at the root of the webapp looks like this:
<% response.sendRedirect("index.action"); %>
The action that this refers to is:
<action name="index" class="com.fdar.apress.s2.IndexAction">
<result>/jsp/index.jsp</result>
</action>
For some reason, instead of going to "/jsp/index.jsp", it appears to be
trying to serve "/index.jsp", which seems to be what causes the infinite
loop.
Martin Gainty pointed out to me that I was missing the "actionPackages"
init-param. I fixed that, but that only made it so that it made it into
my "index" action class, 20 times before failing.
I tried enabling "devMode" in the struts.properties file and sending
"?debug=console" to my URL, but that didn't appear to give me any
additional info anywhere.
