<action forward request on jsp page is null

This is a continuation of:question Q_23427531.html At
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/23427531/action-forward-struts.html

my Action class and failure.jsp page look like shown below.

when i am forwarded to failure.jsp, my screen shows:
Errors occurred:
null

meaning there were no exception, but i am unable to print the request set in action class JUST go to success page, Also see, customer.jsp and a snippet of strut-config.xml

try {
    	request.setAttribute("errorMessage" , "++++++ Before HibernateTransaction");
			// perform list customer operations
			CommandExecutor.getInstance().executeHibernateCommand(
							new CreateCustomer(currentCustomer));
			request.setAttribute("customer",currentCustomer );
		request.setAttribute("Inside try block -- customer", currentCustomer );
		}
    	catch (Exception e) 
    	{
    		System.out.println("######Inside catch block########");
    		request.setAttribute("errorMessage", "#Inside catch block#" + e.getMessage());
			throw new ServletException(e);
		}
    	
    	request.setAttribute("errorMessage", "everything seem fine -- After Catch block");
		return mapping.findForward("success");
 
	}
 
failure.jsp look

    pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
