My struts-config.xml is given below

Could anyone help me in sorting out this problem???

I think the problem is with this line in your struts-config file:

<action path="/move" type="org.apache.struts.action.ForwardAction" name ="loginform" parameter="/jsp/Login.jsp"/>

I checked the API for struts 1.3.8 and the correct package for ForwardAction is org.apache.struts.actions - You're missing the last 's'.
