Cannot find ActionMapping or ActionFormBean

I am trying to build a demo struts application that simply takes in an username & password value from a JSP.

However, I am stuck with a stupid/silly problem, with no probable root cause in sight. I am posting every details about this application. Please help.

My action controller is :

package com;

public class LoginAction extends Action
{
private static Properties props = new Properties();

public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping pMapping, ActionForm pForm,
HttpServletRequest pRequest, HttpServletResponse pResponse) throws Exception
{
props.load(new FileInputStream("java.properties"));
LoginPageElements logger = (LoginPageElements) pForm;

String userNameToken = props.getProperty("userName");
String passwordToken = props.getProperty("password");

String userName = pRequest.getParameter(userNameToken);
String password = pRequest.getParameter(passwordToken);

System.out.println("username = "+userName+" password = "+password);

//No real business logic in here. Just dummy stuff.

return pMapping.findForward("NoGo");
}
}

The struts-config.xml is as follows :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.2//EN"
"http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/struts-config_1_2.dtd">

input="jsp/Login.jsp">
<forward name="GoAhead" path="/html/Success.htm">
</forward>
<forward name="NoGo" path="/html/Failure.htm">
</forward>
</action>
</action-mappings>

</struts-config>

I am deploying this application on Apache Tomcat 7.0.0 with JVM version 1.6.0_20-b02.

The list of lib files included with the WAR file is :

When hitting the welcome page of this app, I get the following error:

in your struts-config verify the form bean specified

You are providing the action class instead of the form bean, try more

Implemented this, but no improvement !

My form-beans tag now points to :

<form-bean name="intro" type="com.LoginPageElements"/>

Same error, same issue.

Hi,

In Your Web.xml

Action servlet should be loaded on start up of server. change it as 1 and your code should work.

@Shailesh : Tried that too. No good ! Same issue continues...

Please check your console on server start up, if any exception is coming please post that.

Yes, there is an exception while starting up the server. I'm posting the screen caps here:

How to resolve this? Please help ! I'm stuck.

Looks like there is some problem in the config files (.xml) which is not getting parsed properly. Provide the log content which would be more clear instead of screen shot which is incomplete.

Here goes the complete console logs, in text format :

Hi,

Copy pasted the entire thing into my system, and removed the jar file too. Still didn't work !!!

I'm getting the following error when I hit the frontend(Login.jsp):

One more thing that came to my notice is that I'm using struts.jar version - 1.2, but my struts-taglib.jar is of version 2.0.
Could this be a root cause?

Could you please post the list of jar files that you used to make this app run in your system ?

I re-coded the entire application !

It's up and kicking, big time.

Modify this <html:form action="/Login.do"> As <html:form action="Login"> that means remove '/' symbol from form tag...............try it

include following tag in web.xml ---->
<servlet>
.
.
.
.
.

<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

HI all,
i got the same error........
