Problem deplying struts application in weblogic

[Prashanth Chandra]

Hi all
I have depolyed a struts application in weblogic server which is able to recognize the applcation and is displaying the home page. But when I am trying to call the FormBean or Action class it says class not found.

I have compiled my classes as
javac -d . DtsDataForm.java DtsDataAction.java DtsUtil.java

It get compiled and creates the exact package folder strutcture. I have put these files in WEB-INF/classes folder.

Below are the errors:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.gecs.dts.DtsDataForm

Can you post the complete source code for : DtsDataForm.java ?
Please paste code for only this file for now.
Kindly use the UBB code tag for this purpose.
Refer to this for more information.

[Prashanth Chandra]

Hi,
Please find the code below:

package com.dts;
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.StringTokenizer;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;

public class DtsDataForm extends ActionForm
{
String start=null;
String end=null;
String startTime=null;
String endTime=null;
public void setStart(String start)
{
this.start=start;
}
public String getStart()
{
return this.start;
}

public void setEnd(String end)
{
this.end=end;
}
public String getEnd()
{
return this.end;
}

public void setStartTime(String startTime)
{
this.startTime=startTime;
}
public String getStartTime()
{
return this.startTime;
}


public void setEndTime(String endTime)
{
this.endTime=endTime;
}
public String getEndTime()
{
return this.endTime;
}
public void reset(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request)
{
this.start = null;
this.end = null;
this.startTime = null;
this.endTime = null;
}

}

Ok, first of all, kindly use the code tags to paste any code.It makes it easier for others to understand what you are saying, so ultimately, it will help you.

Your code for DtsDataForm specifies package name as "com.dts", whereas at runtime, it this Form is expected to be inside com/gecs/dts.
This is obvious from the following error:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.gecs.dts.DtsDataForm

Kindly check the Action and Form classes signature specified in
struts-config.xml for the associated mapping.
Its likely that you have specified wrong fully-qualified class names.

Once again, please follow the rules of the Ranch and use proper code tags.

[Prashanth Chandra]

Hi All,
Sorry the package structure was "com.gecs.dts"

There was a miss while I was pasting the code.

[tapeshwar sharma]

Ok, once again go back and supply the following items 'As It is' from the source files :
1) DtsDataForm.java
2) struts-config.xml.
Also, provide the directory structure that you see after the compilation of source files under WEB-INF/classes.

Please use proper code tags or I may not be able to help you.

This is a blank Struts configuration file with an example
welcome action/page and other commented sample elements.

Tiles and the Struts Validator are configured using the factory defaults
and are ready-to-use.

NOTE: If you have a generator tool to create the corresponding Java classes
for you, you could include the details in the "form-bean" declarations.
Otherwise, you would only define the "form-bean" element itself, with the
corresponding "name" and "type" attributes, as shown here.

It really wouldn't hurt to read this link before you start posting.
My guess is that there might be a problem with your server class path, since the qualified names in struts-config and the folder structure seem to be in order.
You can also try putting all your class files in a jar file under WEB-INF/lib.

[Prashanth Chandra]

Hi
Have set the classpath for the classes I have compiled and also put them in WEB-INF/lib folder. But still facing the same issue
