Error - Cannot create redirect URL

[Dilip kumar]

Hello All -

I'm getting below error message. Spent almost an hour but couldn't find the cause. Really appreciate any help. Thanks

javax.servlet.ServletException: Cannot create redirect URL: java.net.MalformedURLException: Cannot retrieve ActionForwards collection

welcome.jsp

(%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld" prefix="logic" %)
(logic:redirect forward="init"/)

struts-config.xml

    
(!-- Global Forwards --)
(global-forwards)
<forward name="init" path="/KPM/initialize.do" /)
(/global-forwards)
 
(action-mappings>
(action path="/initialize" type="com.test.kpm.InitializeAction" name="InitializeForm" scope="request")
(forward name="success" path="/main.jsp" /)
(forward name="failure" path="/Error.jsp" /)
(/action) 
(/action-mappings)

This error could occur if the Struts ActionServlet has not initialized prior to your requesting this JSP.

Did you specify <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> for the ActionServlet in your web.xml file?

Even I am getting the exception! I tried the <load-on-startup> thing but it didn't work. Please check the struts-config file.
