Struts2 FilterDispatcher Error

[Rajesh Seth]

Hi,

I am trying to deploy war file on weblogic 10 with struts2, getting error in deployment.

[ERROR]

War File Structure

META-INF ---> application.xml
WEB-INF -- > lib folder --> struts jar file
---> web.xml & weblogic.xml
ui --> jsp files

web.xml file looks like.....

<web-app id="WebApp_9" version="2.4" 
	xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" 
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

Welcome to JavaRanch!

What libraries and versions are you deploying?

Oh, and please UseCodeTags when posting code or configuration. Unformatted code and configuration is unnecessarily difficult to read. You can edit your post by using the button. Thanks!

Thanks David,

I will use codetags while posting code.

I am using struts2-core-2.2.1.jar, weblogic version 10.0.1 and jdk version 1.5.0

[David Newton]

*All* the libraries you're deploying, and their versions.

Thanks for your help David,

I got the solution. Missing some jar files. Also checked your link.

Glad to hear you worked it out :)
