Hi All,

While creating a Struts 2 (2.1.8.1) Hello world example in Eclipse (1.2.1....) I am getting a following error, please let me know what is missing here. I am using Tomcat 6 for this.

Looks like you're missing commons-fileupload (and potentially commons-io).

I have all the commons.... .jar in Struts Hello World's applications WEB-INF/lib directory. Do they need to be copied to some other location also, for Eclipse or Tomcat to locate them or anything else need to configured in Eclipse?

I don't really believe that you do:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadException

There's not much else that can cause that error.

What David mean was that you missed commons-fileupload-x.x.x.jar in your classpath or WEB-INF/lib

hi p,

if you have extra jar files (such as spring jars) in your classpath or lib folder, it may have caused to read some config files and unable to load them
