Please Help! configuring a struts webapp in Jboss

D

Demi

Hello All,
I have been trying to run a sample struts application on JBoss for
quite sometime now and i have been stuck at this point.
Id appreciate if anyone can give me some pointers as to where im going
wrong.

This application worked perfectly on Tomcat 5.5. but im having problems
with JBoss. All the required libraries and jboss-web.xml are in place.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
