Running struts app on WebSphere 4

Hi,

Have developed a web app using the struts framework, using JBuilder and it
worked fine using TomCat4 within JBuilder.

Now I need to migrate it to a WebSphere server and I've amended the required
Websphere files/etc but I keep getting this error when starting up the
server.....:

[9/18/02 16:49:45:444 GMT+01:00]   226a77 WebGroup      X Servlet
Error-[action]: Failed to load servlet: java.lang.ClassCastException:

Re: Running struts app on WebSphere 4

Posted by Danny Mui <da...@muibros.com>.
For me, I got class cast exceptions with StringBuffer so this may be the 
same or lead you to your solution.  The IBM JDK with Websphere is 1.2 
compliant i think? So anything compiled as 1.4 will not work.  I 
compiled with 1.3 and voila they disappeared.  But for actionservlet, I 
don't know....

I have struts 1.1b application running on Websphere 4.03, you should go 
up to 03 because there are several fixes that help when deploying struts 
apps.
