Cannot find the tag library descriptor for /WEB-IN

Question

I am new to the Struts framework and while developing a simple Struts 2 application I'm getting the following error:

Cannot find the tag library descriptor for /WEB-INF/struts-html.tld

How do I fix this error?

Answer 1

Can not find the tag library descriptor

For above Error.

Please upload the Struts 2 core jar file to the Build path of your application/web project, it works.

Thanks Ghouse khan.

Answer 2

struts-html.tld is a TLD for Struts 1 tags.

Struts 2 uses a single TLD, struts-tags.tld, and it's in the struts2-core-2.x.x.jar.

You can declare it as follows:

<%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags" %>

There are other TLDs like struts-dojo-tags (deprecated in 2.1), struts-jquery-tags, etc... but start with the main one, take a tour of Struts2 and then eventually try to use the "extensions".
