Parsing error processing resource path /WEB-INF/struts-config.xml

Hello All,
I am getting the following exception with Tomcat5.5. I am using struts and spring combined frame work...
Does anybody know what would be the problem?

Your stuts-config file is corrupt. Make sure it is correctly formatted - try using the struts-blank config and see if you still get this same exception. You can see in the stack trace that is was caused at handleConfigException().

Please, take in account that this very forum is not intended for support, "Web" or "Core container" forums are more appropriate for questions of such type as yours.

Anyway, you have not provided enough info for adequate analysis of your problem :(
