My velocity-struts-1.2 message tool is throwing NPEs, even though it looks to me that my action servlet is being loaded before the velocity servlet.
The velocity faq says that the MessageTool will throw a NullPointerException if the ActionServlet isn't initialized before trying to use struts-tools. I set my ActionServlet to load 1st and my Velocity Servlet to load 3rd. But I still get NullPointerException when I don't have a resource in my resource bundle. So $text.resource.in.bundle displays fine but $text.resource.not.in.bundle gives a null pointer stack trace. Below I've listed my web.xml and a sample stack trace. I'd like to know what I need to do to get the text "$text.resource.not.in.bundle" in my pages instead of a stack trace.
