I am configuring Struts app to run on Struts2, but tiles is giving the following error on deployment:
Target state: deploy failed on Server AdminServer java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.tiles.web.startup.TilesListener
At this point in time, I am just trying to bring up my login page.
Below are my config files:
