i tried to code the following simple struts but encounter this error during run time.

[org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.Dispatcher] Could not find action or result: No result defined for action com.peter.action.LoginAction and result success  

index.jsp

Besides the runtime error, there is deployment error which is

ERROR [com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.finder.ClassFinder] (MSC service thread 1-2) Unable to read class [WEB-INF.classes.com.peter.action.LoginAction]: Could not load WEB-INF/classes/com/peter/action/LoginAction.class - [unknown location] at com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.finder.ClassFinder.readClassDef(ClassFinder.java:785) [xwork-core-2.3.1.2.jar:2.3.1.2]

AFAIK, the scanning methodology of struts will scan the default packages named struts2 for any annotated class but i have instructed struts2 to scan in com.peter.action using init-param but still unable to find the class. It is pretty weird.

Please help.

Thanks.
