I am hitting the bug https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/STR-2957 (

I am using struts 1.2.9 release.
Any body is planned to take up this bug?

I don't think so. If you want to correct it, post a patch to the issue
itself.

Ok sorry for the "too-fast" answer.
The reason for not fixing this bugs outselves is the fact that Tiles 2
exists:
http://tiles.apache.org/
and that the Tiles 1 bug can be circumvented (most probably you have a
<tiles:insert> that is not bound to any attribute value).
So you have three options:
1) since you are using JSF and not Struts, migrate to Tiles 2 (best option
IMHO);
2) create a patch (I don't know how to fix it, download the source from the
svn trunk);
3) stick with the bug, that can be fixed on your code.

Sorry for this.

That wasn't even *close*.

At least the other ones were vaguely related to the question being asked.

Uh! I am very sorry, I don't know where I read that you use JSF :-O
Anyway, you can migrate as long as you don't use Struts-Tiles glue code,
such as forwarding to a Tiles definition and using a Struts action as a
controller (called "preparer" in Tiles 2).

3) stick with the bug, that can be fixed on your code.

This problem happens when some of the attributes are not filled. You should
check them out to see which is failing.
We can help you in this case: post your interesting parts of
tiles-defs.xmland JSP pages and we will try it.

Ciao
