Description

Create from catalog:

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=http://struts.apache.org/ 

Trying to run, browser displays:

Unable to instantiate Action, ${package}.IndexAction, defined for 'index' in namespace '/'${package}.IndexAction

Root cause:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: ${package}.IndexAction

in struts.xml:

        <action name="index" class="${package}.IndexAction">
            <result>/jsp/index.jsp</result>
        </action> 

package is not substituted.

I didn't try creating directly:

mvn archetype:generate -B -DgroupId...

i recommend testing too.
