I investigated this problem and here's what I found: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-2160
I have also proposed a solution to this problem in the JIRA ticket. I have tested that solution and it works, but it is really a work-around for what I believe is a bug in Struts. Here's a PR with the fix: https://github.com/apache/roller/pull/55 Thanks, Dave On Fri, Feb 28, 2020 at 7:08 PM Naren <getna...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dave, > > Thanks again for fixing it in advance and also I have few > suggestions that might be useful for folks using Roller. > > > 1) For installing this behind firewall with internet restrictions in DMZ: > Packaging the required libraries will help, for example when I installed > Roller 5.2.4 I had to download tiles-config_3_0.dtd > and refer it like locally. /WEB-INF/lib/tiles-config_3_0.dtd" > > 2) /webapps//WEB-INF/classes/struts.xml which was part of the 5.2.4 Global > allowed methods didnt work and I had to add them to > as allowed-methods for each action.
