Paul Benedict updated STR-3094:
-------------------------------

          Component/s: Core
             Priority: Minor  (was: Major)
    Affects Version/s:     (was: 1.3.8)
                       1.3.5
              Summary: Emit error to log when input forward does not exist  (was: provide background info on "The path of an ForwardConfig cannot be null")

I have changed the title of this issue to match the improvement provided. I could not reproduce what you showed, but this will definitely help along the same lines.l

> this happens for example if the action in a html:form tag is not existing in the struts-config.xml 
> A reasons for this could be due to a typo.
> Suggestion: if the ForwardConfig lookup in struts-config.xml results in "null", please cite the action string that was used for the lookup .
> The below error message is currently not particularly helpful. Or at least mention something like, "please check your struts-config.xml"
