Mitch McKenzie [http://community.jboss.org/people/mmckenzie] created the discussion "jboss-5.1.0.GA / struts-2.2.1.1 deployment inconsistency" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/601079#601079 -------------------------------------------------------------- If I copy the attached sample struts 2 application to C:\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\default\deploy and hit the following url http://localhost:8080/Struts2_Annotations_Mvn/ http://localhost:8080/Struts2_Annotations_Mvn/  everything works fine. If I deploy the application in exploded form (C:\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\default\deploy\Struts2_Annotations_Mvn.war\WEB-INF, META-INF, index.jsp) and hit the url: http://localhost:8080/Struts2_Annotations_Mvn/ http://localhost:8080/Struts2_Annotations_Mvn/ the main page will load but if I click on the " http://localhost:8080/Struts2_Annotations_Mvn/hello.action Get your hello." link it does not work and I receive the following error: Struts Problem Report  Struts has detected an unhandled exception: Messages:       There is no Action mapped for namespace / and action name hello.
