What error are you getting? That String file below is null? Maybe the
error is differnet from what you think it is..?
If not, this is strange. I have set countless session vars and forwarded
to different actions and got the variables back fine, so try the following
things:
1. Clean out your work directory, do a full rebuild, restart tomcat and
try again.
2. Check and make sure you are forwarding to something which is still in
the same web context. (recheck the struts-config.xml).
