tomcat can't find action class

Hi all,

OK I've got Struts In Action and I'm ready for action!  Unfortunately, my web 
app isn't.  For some reason, my action class cannot be found...?  I will give 
the details below. I would really appreciate any advice you guys may have. 

Here's the deal:

All I am trying to do is get Tomcat and Struts to play nice.  I am using 
container managed security with a jdbcRealm (no problem logging on).  I want 
to create a simple "Logoff" action from within struts.  I am using the 
1.1b_blank_application provided by struts and modifying it, but keep getting 
this error (from catalina.out):

INFO: Processing a 'GET' for path '/Logoff'
Dec 16, 2002 5:20:10 PM org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor 
processActionCreate
SEVERE: No action instance for path /Logoff could be created
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: tahc.hris.action.LogoffAction

        at 
org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.applicationClass(RequestUtils.java:193)........

struts-config.xml clip:
<action path="/Logoff"
        type="tahc.hris.action.LogoffAction">
      <forward
            name="success"
            path="/pages/Welcome.jsp" />
</action>

I have an action forward that looks like this:
<forward name="logoff"  path="/Logoff.do" />    



My LogoffAction class compiles fine.  Here's how I refer to the LogoffAction 
from a jsp page:
<html:link forward="logoff">Sign out</html:link>


Please send advice! Thanks in advance,
--Nathan Pitts
