The problem that you are using EL in the struts tag, that is not expecting it.

<logic:notEmpty name="UserSession" property="menu">
    <bean:define id="menuInfo" name="UserSession" property="menu"/>
    <ul id="navigation">
        <logic:iterate id="t" name="menuInfo" property="menuEntries" type="com.example.MenuEntry">
           ...

when i do what you tell me i have this error: notEmpty tag in the tag library imported with prefix logic

Roman C Over a year ago

you didn't import tag library, so you can't use it with jsp

Mercer Over a year ago

Ok How librairie can I find it?

Roman C Over a year ago

You can find them here. And you should read the answer before you accepted it the EL tags are generally unnecessary in today's server environments....
