problem using struts:select tag

First of all, I am using struts 2. The page won't load. I get the error: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: tag 'select', field 'list', name 'maxtopics': The requested list key 'maxtopicslist' could not be resolved as a collection/array/map/enumeration/iterator type. Example: people or people.{name}

The code for the action for the page (Preferences.java) is:



The jsp page that uses the maxtopicslist is PreferencesFrame.jsp:



Can anyone see a problem with this implementation?

System.out.println(getMaxtopicslist());


Does the action prints out a not null maxtopicslist? If yes then the problem might be in how you are accessing your JSP page. I mean to say that you have to call this action which will pass the result as this JSP.

Thank you. The problem was in the page that was supposed to point to the action, I had pointed it to the jsp page itself like this:
