Nils-H (or anyone else):
I've duplicated this problem with 2.1.6 and portlets as follows:
Created a Struts 2 web/portlet application with a pom.xml having a
dependency on struts2-core-2.0.11.2.jar. Works both as a normal web
application and as a portlet application.
Changed the dependencies to be struts2-core-2.1.6.jar and
struts2-portlet-plugin-2.1.6.jar. Running the application as a web
application in Tomcat 6 results in a org.apache.jasper.JasperException:
java.lang.NullPointerException whenever a Struts 2 action is called.
Removed the dependency on struts2-portlet-plugin-2.1.6.jar and the
application runs fine as a normal Struts 2 web application.
I can provide the code that demonstrates the problem if it would be helpful.
Is anyone on the Struts 2 development team researching the cause of this
problem and a potential fix?
Any insight into if this is an actual bug in 2.1.6 that will be fixed in a
future release would be helpful.
BTW the maven archtype specified here:
http://struts.apache.org/2.1.6/docs/struts-2-portlet-tutorial.html
for the portlet tutorial doesn't work.
Thanks for taking a look at this issue. We had hope to develop Struts 2
applications that can work as both a standalone web application and as a
portlet in a portal container.

If you're using portlets, your package must extend
"struts-portlet-default" instead of "struts-default". It should be
possible to run servlet actions and portlet actions in the same
application.
