Do you see any exception stacktrace on your server console or server log. If yes, post the exception stacktrace

No there is no stach trace of the error the jsp page shows just
cannot find resource welcome.do

the server catalina doesnt give any errors basically it cannot find my action servlet as i think because it doesnt print the System.out.println lines that i have in there .

Can u run this small ap on ur server and check if it wrks on urs.

I just cant figure out why, all the examples seem to run fine. even if i edit them.
Thanks avneet

Tried it, did some changes and here are the working files:

index.jsp:



Changes: 1) Used html:form instead of form(also added the @taglib directive)
2) Also, placed struts-html.tld file in WEB-INF directory.

struts-config.xml:



Changes: 1) In the action tag, changed path="welcome.jsp" to path="/welcome.jsp"
2) Added the form-bean declaration and used the same in the action tag

All the other files remain unchanged

The exact reason why you were seeing the mapping not found error, was because in index.jsp:

<FORM ACTION="/welcome.do"


you were *not* specifying the context of the application.
So i changed the <form> tag to <html:form> tag which by default prefixes the context of the application to the action url.

If you do not want to use the <html:form> tag then you can change the index.jsp to:


assuming, myApp is the context-root of your application.
