I did one more test to verify the problem [I also changed the context root - just to get crazy] and the problem is there [you will find the server partial dump beflow]: I first typed: https://localhost:9445/ccol/index.html The url got redirected to the following url [after I was prompted to basic http authentication dialog]: https://localhost:9445/ccol/example/HelloWorld.action Now from within the same browser, I can type anyother existing url (including those that end with .action], everything works fine. Then, I opened a new browser, copied the above link in it [https://localhost:9445/ccol/example/HelloWorld.action], and I got "page not found" error [not to mention that I even did not get prompted for authentication]. Then I uninstalled the app, and installed the same app [blank.war] for struts 2.0.11 and It works like charm with no problem. Here is the partial server dump: [5/8/08 9:23:38:095 EDT] , key = java.io.FileNotFoundException com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.extension.DefaultExtensionProcessor.handleRequest 573 Exception = java.io.FileNotFoundException Source = com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.extension.DefaultExtensionProcessor.handleRequest probeid = 573 Stack Dump = java.io.FileNotFoundException: /example/HelloWorld.action at com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.extension.DefaultExtensionProcessor.handleRequest(DefaultExtensionProcessor.java:414) at com.ibm.ws.wswebcontainer.extension.DefaultExtensionProcessor.handleRequest(DefaultExtensionProcessor.java:113) at com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.webapp.WebApp.handleRequest(WebApp.java:3276) at com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.webapp.WebGroup.handleRequest(WebGroup.java:267) at com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.WebContainer.handleRequest(WebContainer.java:811) at com.ibm.ws.wswebcontainer.WebContainer.handleRequest(WebContainer.java:1455) at com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.channel.WCChannelLink.ready(WCChannelLink.java:113) at com.ibm.ws.http.channel.inbound.impl.HttpInboundLink.handleDiscrimination(HttpInboundLink.java:454) at com.ibm.ws.http.channel.inbound.impl.HttpInboundLink.handleNewInformation(HttpInboundLink.java:383) at com.ibm.ws.http.channel.inbound.impl.HttpInboundLink.ready(HttpInboundLink.java:263) at com.ibm.ws.ssl.channel.impl.SSLConnectionLink.determineNextChannel(SSLConnectionLink.java:1002) ..............
