Java.lang.NullPointerException

Fala pessoal estou desenvolvendo um formulario simples com STRUTS 1 e o mesmo ao tentar inserir um registro no banco me da esta exception.
Alguém poderia me dar uma forcinha?

Action

public class ClienteAction extends DispatchAction {
	
	
	public ActionForward home(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
			HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {	
		
		return mapping.findForward("ok");
	}
	
	
	
	public ActionForward gravaContato(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
			HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {

		ClienteForm formulario = (ClienteForm) form;
		Cliente cliente = formulario.getCliente();
		
		ClienteDao.save(cliente);

		return mapping.findForward("ok");
	}

ClienteDao

[code]
public class ClienteDao {

public static void save(Cliente cliente) throws Exception{
	
	HibernateUtil.beginTransaction();
	HibernateUtil.getSession().save(cliente);
	HibernateUtil.commitTransaction();
	
}

}[/code]

ClienteForm

[code]
public class ClienteForm extends ActionForm {

/**
 * 
 */
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

private Cliente cliente = new Cliente();


public Cliente getCliente() {
	return cliente;
}

public void setCliente(Cliente cliente) {
	this.cliente = cliente;
}

}[/code]

model

package vc.sooamorconsegue.model;

import java.util.Date;

import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;

import org.hibernate.annotations.Cache;

public class Cliente {
	
	@Id
	@GeneratedValue
	private int id;
	private String nome;
	private String email;
	private Date dataDeNascimento;
	
	
	
	
	public int getId() {
		return id;
	}
	public void setId(int id) {
		this.id = id;
	}
	public String getNome() {
		return nome;
	}
	public void setNome(String nome) {
		this.nome = nome;
	}
	public String getEmail() {
		return email;
	}
	public void setEmail(String email) {
		this.email = email;
	}
	public Date getDataDeNascimento() {
		return dataDeNascimento;
	}
	public void setDataDeNascimento(Date dataDeNascimento) {
		this.dataDeNascimento = dataDeNascimento;
	}
	
	

}

DispatchAction? Não seria Action?
