Please Post your web.xml and struts-config.xml

without those file, it's not possible to know where the problem is

Thanks

Please make sure you have TLD file in the struts-taglib-1.3.8.jar/META-INF/tld/struts-bean.tld, also check for the taglib mapping. The JAR must be on classpath.

Thanks Sagar For your reply.

I inserted jta.jar into lib folder and Error which I was facing while deploying that one gone.

I checked for struts-bean.tld inside the struts-taglib-1.3.8.jar and it is present their but still facing the same problem as I mentioned above.

Look at the very first reply regarding the new way of defining the tld url in JSP files here and I hope you got the struts-taglib-1.3.8.jar in Classpath

I have the same problem, and solve it with the under instruction.

Just delete these files from the directory(web-inf):
jsp-api.jar
servlet-api.jar

perhaps no help to the poster, I wish it will help other ones.

Thanks, Sunmon Jaya. You suggestion was a lifeSAVER!! I finally figured the cause for my misery of last 20 hours.

Thnaks Sunmon Jaya. Thank you after an hour of struggle i got the solution now. its Working Now!!!

Thanks a lot Sunmon Jaya, it fixed for me too.
