That's because the tiles inheritance you are trying to use doesn't make sense. The managerPage1 tile does NOT have a "middle" element in the parent tile (which is defined in the managerBody tile). You probably need to use a different strategy, perhaps check the role and forward to the proper tile (tile layout for managers and tile layout for non-managers).

I have a mainLayout which has a header, body and footer.(and thus I have
4 jsps, mainLayout.jsp, header.jsp, body.jsp, and footer.jsp, and notice
that body.jsp will be different for each different screen page).

One setting can be of:

<!-- shared by all -->
<definition name="mainLayout" path="/jsp/common/mainLayout.jsp">
        <put name="header" value="/jsp/common/header.jsp" />
          <put name="body" value="" />
        <put name="footer" value="/jsp/common/footer.jsp" />
</definition>

<!-- this is different from each screen page -->
<definition name="viewemployee" extends="mainLayout">
   <put name="body" value="/jsp/employee/employee.jsp" />
</definition>     
Then I have a further requirement: Manager pages's body has left, middle
and right. All manager pages will have common left and right, but middle
will be different. So I define the managerBody like

        <!-- every manager page shares this -->
         <definition name="managerBody"
path="/jsp/common/managerBodyLayout.jsp">
                <put name="left" value="/jsp/common/left.jsp"/>
                <put name="middle" value=""/>
                <put name="right" value="/jsp/common/right.jsp"/>
        </definition>

Then if I have managerPage1, I can define as:

 <definition name="managerPage1" extends="mainLayout">
        <put name="body" value="managerBody"/>
                <put name="middle"
value="/jsp/manager/managerMiddle1.jsp"/>"/>
 </definition>    

Unfortunately, this doesn't work. Can somebody help? Thanks.
