Error 500: Cannot retrieve definition for form bean null 

Hi,

I am getting "Error 500: Cannot retrieve definition for form bean 
null" when I use the form tag <html:form action="/updateOrder.do">. 
However, if I use <form action="updateOrder.do" method="post">, I 
don't get that error. Is there something wrong I am doing?

Here is the action-mapping from struts-config:
<action    path="/updateOrder"
           type="mypackage.UpdateOrdersAction">
           name="updateOrderForm"
       	   scope="session"
       	   validate="false">
           input="/updateorder.jsp">
   <forward name="update"     path="/showorderdetails.jsp"/>
   <forward name="edit"       path="/updateorder.jsp"/>
</action>

Here is my form-bean definition from struts-config:
<form-bean name="updateOrderForm"
           type="mypackage.UpdateOrderForm"/>

Thanks,
Marwan

Are you sure fields of bean UpdateOrderForm.java match (get/set) fields 
in your html form.
