tiles:insert with beanName and tiles-defs.xml causes JspException
-----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: STR-2953
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/STR-2953
             Project: Struts 1
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Tiles
    Affects Versions: 1.3.5
         Environment: Struts 1.3.5, Windows, Eclipse, Weblogic, Intel
            Reporter: Husleag Dumitru


The tutorial is wrong !?

On page http://struts.apache.org/1.3.5/struts-tiles/examples.html
there is an example page built with a tile definition in a tiles-defs.xml file
which uses 

<tiles:insert beanName="templateDefinition" />

This causes an exception

javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Error - Tag Insert : No value defined for bean 'tiles.login' with property 'null' in scope 'null'.

BUT !!! it works if you replace beanName with definition like this:

<tiles:insert definition="templateDefinition" />
