Hi Lukasz,
Just to follow-up, I *think* I identified the problem... I just don't
understand why. The issue is that our template directory is in
src/main/webapps/ and not src/main/resources/ . Is it possible that this is
a bug in how the UIBean resolves paths? When we move the directory the
errors for struts2 looking for template/~~~tdar/css.ftl go away. Is it
possible that there's a relative directory reference or some other
assumption in how/where it looks for different themes?
