I am not sure how much of my code I should give. I have a bean java file, a form java file, and a action java file. I also have a web.xml and a strukts-config file. I thinkk youu would need all that to prooduce myy error. So tell me what you think you would need to see and I'll post it.

Hi Paul,

I have written a few java files and rewrote a template to be more like a
template rather then standard html.  When I tried to view the webpage I
found that I have a NullPointerException.  Usually when there is a NPE
the compiler tells me where in my code the NPE is coming from.  However
it just starts out with
"org.apache.velocity.tools.struts.StrutsUtils.getMessageResources(StrutsUtils.java:211)"

Source says, you didn't give it a ServletContext, or a ModuleConfig
could not be found.
       return (MessageResources)app.getAttribute(Globals.MESSAGES_KEY +
                                                 moduleConfig.getPrefix());

I think the problem is that the properties file I defined is not moved
to the classes directory when the javacode is compiled.  How do I do
that if I am using Ant to compiule my source code?  However when I did
move the properties file into the right directory, I still get the same
error.  Oh yeah this happens on all velocity  pages that I  created
before  I changed the code.

If you need to see the entire error please let me know and I will
provide it.

I think it would.  Better yet, you could show us some minimal code to
reproduce your problem.  ;)

As for the Ant question, the Ant User List would be a better place to ask.
