Struts - Problem with ActionMessages

Question

Hi everyone:
Here is my problem: This is the code in my action class
catch (Exception e){
                    ActionMessages errors = new ActionMessages();
                    if (e instanceof DatabaseException)
                         errors.add("error", new ActionMessage("errors.database", e
                                   .getMessage().toString()+" Hay un error en la BD"));
                    else
                         errors.add("error", new ActionMessage("error", e
                                   .getMessage().toString()+" Hay un error"));
                    saveMessages(request, errors);
                    System.out.println(errors.size());
                    res = mapping.findForward("repetimos");
               }I print the errors.size in order to check if it's not empty. Well, it's size is 1.
In my jsp my code is this:
<logic:messagesPresent message="true">
     <html:messages id="error" message="true">
          <c:out value="${error}" />
     </html:messages>
</logic:messagesPresent>But I don't get any message when an error occurs. Am I doing anything wrong? I can't see the fail.
I appreciate very much your attention. Thanks a lot

In your action do you add errors to the Request or Session? It's been a while since I have worked with struts. Looking back I think we used lists to contain our error messages and displayed them in our JSP.
