I would always use the installers rather than the zip installation.   Try that to see if it solves your problem.

[yonia]

i need the manual install as this would also be installed on unix and not only windows.

anyway this install should be working , no ?

any ideas some one ?

[ming]

Can't you use the installers for Linux?

[yonia]

basically i need it both for linux and windows, and with tomcat already installed.
i don't understand what should be the difference .

i saw this exception can be cause due to mismatches in tiles versions, changed DTD from 2.1 to 2.0 and the application deployed successfully .
<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
       "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 2.0//EN"
       "http://tiles.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd">;

but now i get another exception on
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.struts.taglib.bean.DefineTag
   at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1680)

seems like an issue in struts,tiles configuration in this installation.
do i need to define something ? which is not said in the manual installation ?

[ming]

you won't get conflicts if you use the installers and use the tomcat we provide which is compatible.  Once you have that working you can figure out how to move it to your own tomcat - if you really have to.

[yonia]

sorry for the late response.

the manual installation has some bug or missing instructions in guide cause when i installed with the windows wizard it worked.

though i don't think this should be the solution.
