Forgive me for posting a topic that seems to be answered already in this
forum. I am not able to correct this fault using the information provided in
this form and FAQ sections.

This is a basic tutorial example of a struts project I have created. It
consist of one jsp, one Form and Action class. However, typing in the URL
http://localhost:8080/strutsproject I recieve the following fault:


[code]

What I have done to correct this problem myself:

1. Verify all the dependent jar files are in the lib directory within the
war file.
2. I reviewed the struts-config.xml file.


Here is my struts 1.3.8 config file.


[code]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts

                <form-bean name="addPersonForm"

        </form-beans>

        </action-mappings>

When I go lok at the tomcat logs I see this:

[code]
DEBUG http-8080-1 org.apache.struts.util.PropertyMessageResources -
Initializing, config='org.apache.struts.taglib.logic.LocalStrings',
returnNull=true

[/code]


I am getting the destinct impression that the ActionServlet is not loading. 
I do not see it in the Tomcat logs or within the console stating the
ActionServlet init() has been called.  I have used the blank Struts war file
that comes with the distribution.  I can get this project to work.  I have
compared the libraries and the two projects are the same.  I have read the
JavaRanch forum for suggestions and FAQ.    I can not see where this error
is coming from.....

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  This is my first Struts
application I am accomplishing from the beginning, so I am a little
rusty.....

Thank you in advance for taking the time in reading my post. Any comments
would be greatly appreciated.
