What rev is the xerces.jar that you are using (from Orion)?  Version 1.1.2 or
later is required for JAXP compatibility, which is a prerequisite for use with
Struts.

Help with "example"

[Tom Miller <tm...@kdsi.net>]

Greetings Struts users,

I'm having a little touble trying to run the struts example using the binary
distribution of struts from Sept 1st. I believe I have everything configured OK
with respect to the /example jars, files, etc.

I'm not quite sure about where to put xerces.jar, it is stuck in
examples/WEB-INF/lib at the moment. Couldn't really tell from their docs where
else to put it.

I'm running all of this under IBM Visual Age, which works just dandy for me with
Tomcat. Here is the error that is getting thrown. Does this suggest anything?

"Exception in: R( /example + /index.jsp + null) - javax.servlet.ServletException:
Missing resources attribute org.apache.struts.action.MESSAGE"

TIA

Tom Miller
