didn't check if your overall configuration is correct, but the first thing I'd suggest is moving the <global-forward> part to a normal ForwardAction like this <action path="/login" forward="tiles.login"/> and refer to that in your index.jsp: <jsp:forward page="/login.do" /> This should work. I never researched why Struts global forwards don't behave like normal forwards, but one thing I can say is that they work well when specified inside another action declaration, but not when being directly invoked. AFAIK the <html:link> tag can cope with global forwards, but well, we use the JSTL throughout nowadays.
