Unable to post to struts mailing list

["Boukovska, Danielle" <da...@gs.com>]

Hi Wendy

I really apologise to be sending you mail directly. I have been trying to
post on the Struts list for 2 days, but for some reason I cannot manage to
do it. I am registered, and I receive all the postings but mine just won't
show up. I am sending to user@struts.apache.org. I need to post a question
as I am quite stuck, but am having no luck, and can't find any guidelines on
the site. Am I doing something wrong?

Many thanks!
Danielle

Subject: Trouble with .jar files in 1.2.4 binary distribution


(Resending from a subscribed address...)

Today I tried to deploy a .war file to my production web server which runs
HP-UX.  When it unpacks the war and tries to deploy the webapp, it
complains:

13:29:34,070 - ERROR org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn - JAR entry
org/apache/commons/validator/resources/validator_1_1_3.dtd not found in
/opt/hpws/tomcat/webapps/benauth-test/WEB-INF/lib/commons-validator.jar
java.io.FileNotFoundException: JAR entry
org/apache/commons/validator/resources/validator_1_1_3.dtd not found in
/opt/hpws/tomcat/webapps/benauth-test/WEB-INF/lib/commons-validator.jar

I can do jar -tvf on that .jar file, and the tld appears to be where it
belongs.  Right where the error says it isn't.

I'm not having any problems on my Windows 2000 development box with the same
code, although I use the Ant install/reload tasks to deploy the "loose"
files, I don't make the .war file until I'm ready to go to the production
server.

However, I can't click on any of the .war files that come with 1.2.4 and
launch WinZip.  It says, "Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
c:\jakarta\jakarta-struts-1.2.4\lib\commons-validator.jar".  Every one of
them does the same thing.

Thinking that maybe I got a corrupted .zip file when I downloaded 1.2.4, I
tried again but that didn't help, I still can't "open" the .jar files with
WinZip.

I don't know enough about jar/zip archives to guess, but something is
preventing java on HP-UX from reading the commons-validator.jar file.

Has anyone seen this before?  What could be wrong?

Thanks,
Wendy Smoak
