Dispatcher initialization failed

[Arun Bansal]

I'm trying to create helloworld in struts2 but it is giving me error that is


SEVERE: Dispatcher initialization failed
Unable to load configuration. - bean - jar:file:/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/a.bansal/workspace1/.metadata/.plugins/com.genuitec.eclipse.easie.tomcat.myeclipse/tomcat/webapps/Hello/WEB-INF/lib/struts2-gxp-plugin-2.3.7.jar!/struts-plugin.xml:8:162

I want to know why is this error coming. I first tried with minimal number of jars as specified in many tutorials but after that I downloaded and paste latest versio of jars in my lib folder.
Also please tell me what is the use of struts2-gxp-plugin-2.3.7.jar.

Google GXP is a replacement for JSP's that provides compile-time type safety.
Struts is attempting to load the plugin and apparently failing.
What is the contents of your WEB-INF/lib directory? When you updated the libraries, did you update Eclipse's build path configuration?

commons-logging
freemarker
ognl
struts2-core
xwork
these are the jarsin my Lib folder and yes i updated buildpath

When you download Struts, you should get some sample applications in the apps directory. The struts2-blank application is a good starting place for creating a new app and it contains the following JAR files:

asm-3.3.jar
asm-commons-3.3.jar
asm-tree-3.3.jar
commons-fileupload-1.2.2.jar
commons-io-2.0.1.jar
commons-lang3-3.1.jar
freemarker-2.3.19.jar
javassist-3.11.0.GA.jar
ognl-3.0.5.jar
struts2-core-2.3.7.jar
xwork-core-2.3.7.jar
