Re: RE: Location of JSPs for TILES

[David G. Friedman]

Cameron,

I'm VERY new to struts but I had no problem setting up and using tiles.  Here are some 
of my tiles definitions which I'm using without any problems. Perhaps my definition 
can show you something you might be overlooking...  BTW, I'm on Tomcat 4.1.24 on a 
Linux platform using JDK 1.4.2 on Struts 1.1.

I use it through my action's success forward:

I moved the files from /WEB-INF/jsp/proptype to /WEB-INF/tiles/proptype
but this does not solve the problem.

Must all files for a given Tiles definition be located in the same
folder?  I am extending one layout where the base file is located in
/WEB-INF/jsp and the added file is located in /WEB-INF/jsp/proptype

Should this be causing any problems?  Are there an FAQs or other
resources besides the Javadocs for Tiles where I might be able to learn
of its limitations?  Is there something wrong with my design pattern
which others are not employing, which is why my problem seems so
isolated?

Thanks for any more help

Cameron

I am not sure about Tomcat.  I just know that most jsp containers
compile
the source jsp files to servlets within the /WEB-INF/jsp folder so it
probably isnt the best place to put your source files.

Thanks for the response Marty,

I am using Tomcat 4.1.24, and have no problem generally putting these
files into the /jsp folder, its only when I put them into the /jsp/prop
folder that there are problems.

Where can I find out what the rules are for folders to hold JSPs for
either struts, or tiles?  Does Tomcat implement this reserved folder
concept for WEB-INF/jsp ?

Thanks
 
Cameron

I think that the /jsp folder that you are specifying is a reserved
folder
for some jsp containers.  We use /WEB-INF/pages/...

Hope this helps.

Subject: Location of JSPs for TILES


I am having some problems getting TILES to work properly when I put my
JSPs into folders.  The error I get is:

Unable to compile class for JSP An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp
file: null

Which I assume means that it cannot find the JSP file I have specified
in my tiles-defs.xml.  

If I have my files here:

/WEB-INF/jsp/proptypelist.jsp

and this in the tiles-defs.xml

  


  

Then everything works fine.

BUT, if I put the same file a level deeper:

/WEB-INF/jsp/prop/proptypelist.jsp

with def:






then I get the error.

Any idea why this would be happening?

Are there limits to how deep or where the templates should be located
for use with TILES?  Is there a way to configure this?

Thanks for any assistance

Why not use the Struts Validator, set the validations to use page=1 (or page=2), and 
just set page=1 (or page=2) in the JSP automatically when the page gets displayed?  
Then, the first time you go to it, nothing needs to be validated.  When you hit 
submit, the validations occur for that page, or further pages, if you have more in the 
sequence/step/function/route/click.

Re: Re: Actions Best Practice

[David G. Friedman]

Adam,

I simply add a tag in the  section of my tiles definition like the snippet 
below.  One note to keep in mind from the documentation about the differences between 
server-side validation using the page attribute and client-side validation - client 
side is that page="number" only, and server-side reviews all checks less than or equal 
to that page number (might be large bean on multi-page forms and redirecting to the 
appopriatep age if data is missing might be difficult). Here is a note on that topic 
directly from the page:
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/dev_validator.html


Multi Page Forms 

The field element has an optional page attribute. It can be set to an integer. All 
validation for any field on a page less than or equal to the current page is performed 
server side. All validation for any field on a page equal to the current page is 
generated for the client side Javascript. A mutli-part form expects the page attribute 
to be set.

And, here is my example validation.html segment.  I hardcode  in my jsp/tile.

Re: Struts with Tomcat 4.1.27 ?? (YES)

[David G. Friedman]

> Do Struts works with Tomcat 4.1.27 ?

Yes.  I just saved my webapps struts-*WHATEVER* applications (and my tomcat-users.xml 
ids/passwords), erased my tomcat-4.1.24, installed 4.1.27, and started the new one in 
under 5 minutes time.  My application, the struts example application, and a few 
tiles-documentation examples links seem to work fine.

FYI - you could've installed it so it used another set of ports and didn't conflict 
with any previous version you had running.  Playing with the server.xml file for a new 
version of Tomcat won't hurt if you installed it in another location on disk and tweak 
that version's config file.  If you try to run it while your normal version is 
running, it should just exit, die, or complain it couldn't get the port or service.

Re: RE: RE: validating a html:select box

[David G. Friedman]

Erez,

Good point, a number of validator-rules.xml entries seem skewed toward text or 
textarea, not necessarily the other types.  I've updated my validator-rules.xml and 
got it to work for a single choice "select" with one problem:
The error message is pulling null in for the min and max so it's reading like: 
Month must be in the range null through null.

For now, I've overloaded that using a message resource that only asks for {0} (the 
field name) not the min/max.

If you want my validator-rules.xml that does this single-choice (not multiple) selects 
for intRange, email me off-list.

Note: Tiles maintainers, can you drop me a line so I can submit this after I test it 
on a few more browsers (not just my IE but Opera and Netscape) for possible inclusion 
in the next nightly build - Does tiles do nightly builds?

David

In that field validation, you can overload the sentence given back on
that error.  After  add something like:



Then just add an application resource line such as:
month.too.short=Please select a valid month.
Or
month.too.short=Please select a valid {0}
to show the field name you put as arg0 in your validations xml

What happens with html:radio? Is this also the way also to validate
radio options? If no radio is selected (and I know this is off topic,
well a bit) would the browser send a value?

Re: RE: sorry to bother you

[David G. Friedman]

Khalid,

Below is a suggestion on how to fix your form onChange/ submit issue.  I'm also 
copy'ing this back to the list in case my ideas spark better ones on the list, as you 
received few (none?) replies from your previous posts on this top.

1. Set a hidden form field within the page named lastId (null or 0 if no vehicle was 
entered (i.e. we're on car #1).

2. Use javascript validation in the page but set the form to do:
onsubmit="return MyValidationFunction(this)" 
instead of the regular validation framework call which may be:
onsubmit="return validateMyAction(this)"

Here is a very rough example in JavaScript, including documentation, of what I'm 
thinking might work:


// Set this in the jsp so it puts the number (id, etc.) 
// of the vehicle you are sending to the client so we
// can key off it later (to you can revert that field to it
// if there are validation errors as you described)

var initialVehicle = <bean:write ... etc.../>

function MyValidationFunction(myForm) {
  // if no validation errors, continue
  if ( validateMyAction(myForm) ) {
 // We validated properly? Good, now let's submit
 myForm.submit();

  // Any validation errors? Reset the form fields as
  // necessary.  You suggested that only the vehicle
  // pulldown changed, so the code below (should be okay
  // Javascript code, but I pulled it from memory) assumes 
  // a single choice select box. You can, however, reset 
  // as many more fields in the else clause as you want 
  // since you won't be submitting the form in validation
  // failures.
  } else {
 var l = myForm.vehicleField.length;
 for ( var i = 0; i < l ; i++ ) {
 // found the selection that we started with? 
 // make that one true (shown) again so we're
 // back to, say, vehicle #1 when validation
 // failed after the onchange but without submitting
 if ( myForm.vehicleField.options[i].value == initialVehicle ) {
  myForm.vehicleField.selectedIndex = i;
  // might be just return, not return false, 
  // I always get that wrong in my JavaScript
  return false; 
 };
}
}


That way, your onchange is still there, it still tries to submit but validates first.  
On validation failure, you can reset your vehicleNo field or change any other data.  
On validation succeed, you can submit it.  You can even set a hidden field that 
indicates you updated the vehicle number stored in the JavaScript variable 
initialVehicle.

David

This is my problem:

Order of execution:

Menu link (onclick) --> Dispatch Action(display method) --> forward to jsp (show 
vehicle 1..series of text boxes w/ prefilled data, or empty) --> client change or 
enter new data --> client change selection by selecting 2nd vehicle, --> 
onChange="this.form.submit" --> which submits the Form to the same dispatch action

Problem occurs when submitting after changing data via the drop down and there is a

the html:/errors on the same jsp are for vehicle 1.

doGet() and doPost() are for processing of requests from the browser to
the
servlet, where you are the server and the borwser is the client, and the
servlet container takes care of all the nasty details of decoding the http
request stream and gives you a nice friendly HttpServletRequest object to
use, and a response object to write your response with.

In the problem you have presented here however, *you* are on the client
side
of the request. You will need to open up a connection with the foreign
server, stream the http request in the appropriate format, and decode the
response stream. Since this is with https there are added complications as
you have to deal with all those certs and other wierd stuff (I dont know
too
much about programming at the transport layer so cant help much with
that).
Best book to look at for details on how to do this would be O'Rielly's
"Java
Network Programming".

This is the sort of wheel you really dont want to have to reinvent
yourself.
You would be best using some kind of third party tool, otherwise its going
to be a nightmare. :-(
(Of course HttpClient is opensource so even if you cant *use* it, you can
still go read their source code to see an example of how to do it :-))

I am afraid that I will not be able to use any 3rd party libraries.
Considering, I do the POST from the servlet in the doPost() method, so
it's
my assumption that I will get the response in the doGet method.. is that
correct ?

thanks

Take a look at the HttpClient project. That might have what you need.
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/features.html

You would do the posting from the servlet or action. (Its no good setting
up
a jsp to render a pafe that is used to post the data as it would be the
users browser that actually posts, and thus receives the response).

Hi All,
This is a non-struts related question... sorry about that.. but seeing
such
a active particiaption by so many good technical people, i am inclicned to
put my question here.

I have to a form post to a HTTPS URL. The URL after getting the request
will send a response which I have to capture.
Now, I can do a Form POST from a jsp passing in all the parameters the URL
requires, but how will I capture the response ??
So, is it a good idea to do the POST from a Servlet and if yes... then how
to do it ?

I appreciate the time...

thanks

Out of Memory Error on Struts 1.1, Tomcat 4.1.27, Linux JDK 1.4.2?

[David G. Friedman]

As you may know from my posts, I'm new to Struts.  So, I'm compiling a little, 
reloading my app, compiling more, loading my app, and so forth.  Somewhere between 
reloads ('stop' and then 'start', not 'reload' in the Tomcat manager), 20 to 30, I end 
up getting tomcat errors about being 'Out of Memory'.

I only have 5-6 simple (we're talking basic here) classes and one session-based 
ActionForm I'm using for everything (10 strings in it, that's it).

Other than that, I only have the Stock Struts 1.1 final tiles plug-in, the stock v1.1 
final validator plug-in, and the recent hibernate plug-in from the bluemars site.  
I've reset the ms/mx to 64/128 MB and even 64/256 MB in my catalina.sh but zilch.  
Anyone have any suggestions on how to debut this?  I sure won't be able to deploy 
until I figure out what's causing the memory leak on my Linux system: Struts 1.1 
final, Tomcat 4.1.27, Sun JDK 1.4.2, Hibernate 2.0.2 (stable).

Btw, I'd take out Hibernate but I need it.  Besides, there are no warnings about 
memory problems I've been able to dig up on those versions of the tools I'm using. 
Unless I'm totally missing an obvious post on the lists and archives (and 'Net) that 
I'm searching through.

Thanks again for any suggestions.

Regards,
David

Re: login request

[David G. Friedman]

Dear Andy,

I'm doing the same thing you suggest.  My approach is 
to extend the base Action (or any type of Action) class
by adding a functon 'checkLogin'.  It takes the 'request'
as the argument, checks the session for a User bean, and
throws an exception if the bean is missing or if the ID
number on the bean is zero/unset.  In my execute() method
I make my first line 'checkLogin(request)' and it handles
my authentication.

If you try this approach, keep in mind I'm using Struts
v1.1 final so I can use exceptions.

Tonight I'm going to try switching it to an interface so
I can use it to extend any action type by using 3 lines 
(and without sub-classing):

1. import com.mycompany.auth.LoginCheck;
2. public class MyAction extends Action implements LoginCheck
3. checkLogin(request) <--- 1st line from within the execute 
or DispatchAction, or LookupDispatchAction method, etc.

Regards,
David

I had a problem like that where nothing was being uploaded because my form enctype was 
not set to 'multipart/form-data'.  Then again, the problem was when I was programming

javascript with struts nested fields?

[David G Friedman]

In an html page, is there a way to reference a nested form variable without
using array subscripts?

In the web page the client sees, it gets the below:



I want a pop-up calendar window button next to it that populates that field
with the selected date.  When I switched from "program" to a nested field
named "order.program", it broke.  The "program" can be referenced by
"formName.program" but the nested one causes javascript errors trying to
reference it as "fornName.order.program".   I don't want to use
fornName.elements[XXX] since any changes to the page layout might reorder
fields and change those array subscripts, making development very messy.
Any suggestions?  I tried formName."order.program" but it gave out
Javascript errors.

I've already checked some Javascript 1.1 developer and reference guides from
Netscape and didn't find anything suggesting how to do it this way.

Thanks for any suggestions,

RE: Help in HttpServletRequest

[David G Friedman]

Alvin,

I had worries when I did my first file upload
a few weeks ago.  I used a FormField type as
my FormBean field and then it was a simple
read and copy, like in the struts upload example
which used the commons upload.

The approach is different from your below, but
the file upload example was easy. I have one
interface that simply and easily uploads up to
3 file (image, logo, background) at once.

Some of my code snippets are below to illustrate
how straightforward it can be for file uploading:

1. Add a org.apache.struts.upload.FormFile as a
field in your FormBean with simple setters and
getters:

FormFile logo;
public FormFile getLogo() {
return(logo);
};
public void setLogo(FormFile newLogo) {
logo = newLogo;
};

2. Use that bean for your action.

3. Save the bean while in your action class (or
process class), just like from the struts upload
example.  Just put in your tests to make sure a
valid filename was entered, that the file(s) did
not exceed the max file size, and so forth. More
code snippets for this portion include:

FormFile tempFile = null;
File f = null;
tempFile = form.getLogo();
String newName = "/some/file/path/for/saving.extension";
InputStream stream = tempFile.getInputStream();
OutputStream bos = new FileOutputStream( newName );
int bytesRead = 0;
byte[] buffer = new byte[8192];
while ((bytesRead = stream.read(buffer, 0, 8192)) != -1 ) {
bos.write(buffer,0, bytesRead);
};

That's pretty much it.  I did do some database calls in
my code to save the uploaded file's name since I save
it as a different name (the name is a number but the image
extension is the same image type).  Everything else I did
in my class was hibernate transactions I doubt you'd want
to read.

Regards,
David

RE: What's the best strategy to handle this kind of thread issues?

[David G Friedman]

In IE5 (which is what Id been developing with) the code caused no problems,
but in IE6 clicking the submit button would cause a natural submit to occur
AND my javascripts submit() would also work, resulting in a second request
swiftly following the first (and generally resulting in a error). Sometimes
the first request would get processed second and the page worked, other
times the second one would get processed second and so the error was
displayed. We had to tell the users to 'keey trying' until I had a chance to
fix the problem!


I prevent double submits by using a timer.  On the first submit, the timer
is reset to prevent secondary submit attempts. To assist this, the submit
button is grayed out (disabled).  If the page hasn't gone through in 30
seconds, the grayed out button is enabled for the user try again.  Some
example code follows:

http://www.someUnknownWebSite.com";
onsubmit="return  submitTimer(this);">
Example text 




// 


Note: not all browsers support the disabled property so it won't gray out on
all browsers, but the Date functions I use should still prevent multiple
submits. Feel free to add an alert("Please wait until 30 seconds has passed
to try again.") if that's your preference.

Regards,
David

Why not just cut out the middle man and setup the global-forward to use a
tile instead of doing the extra work of forwarding to an action?  The below
is from my struts-config.xml:


  
  

  
  

  
  
  


Then you can logic:forward to config, menu, signOn, or signOff

Doing what the documentation suggests would work, but, it is not necessary
to do the forward from an Action subclass. You can define an action mapping
that your global forward points to that directly forwards to the tile
definition without having to invoke an action class. This does work. I do
this for the welcome JSP of my current webapp that needs to forward to the
initial webapp tile definition like so:

welcome.jsp:

  <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld" prefix="logic" %>
  

struts-config.xml:

  

  

  

  

The "page.welcome" reference is a tiles definition reference. Granted, it is
annoying to have to define the global-forward/action pairing to make this
work. However, this is much simpler than going to the trouble of defining an
action subclass just to do this where you would still need to define an
action mapping anyway.

FYI, Van

Subject: suggestion: RequestProcessor hooks/plugins instead of

Here's a thought, and I couldn't find any evidence in the list archives 
of this being discussed before. There are many good reasons to extend 
RequestProcessor, but of course it's not possible to use more than one 
RequestProcessor subclass at a time (unless they extend each other), 
and there seems to be an issue with multiple conflicting 
RequestProcessor subclasses-- I can think of several open source struts 
add-ons that do this, plus of course TilesRequestProcessor, and I can't 
use them all together. Plus, I have extended RequestProcessor myself 
(to provide custom access control).

But what if there were a plug-in interface for RequestProcessor to 
provide extra functionality, instead of overriding methods? Then you 
could combine an arbitrary number of per-request customizations. Maybe 
this is complicated because the RequestProcessor interface is quite 
large, and I'm sure there will always still be *some* reason to extend 
RequestProcessor, but I'm sure most people just override a few common 
methods like processPreprocess(), processRoles(), etc., so at least 
this might take care of 90% of the cases.

Any thoughts on this? Perhaps this should be posted to the struts 
developer list instead... but I thought I'd see if it gets shot down 
here first :)

I asked the same question on August 20th an received the below answer from

Hi everyone,

There are many smart people on this list and I haven't been
able to get anywhere with this problem, so...

I'm running 12 Struts-based apps under Resin 2 on a Linux box.
(I don't believe that this is a Struts problem - this is
just some background for you)

Every few days (sometimes this will happen after 2 days, sometimes
5 or 6) I get an OutOfMemory error which stops the JVM...
I have plenty of room in the heap (the machine has 1 GB or
RAM and I have the max heap size -Xmx set to 896 MB) Just before
it dies there are a few attempts to free more memory.
>From the GC log:

Full GC 227765K->132728K(274140K), 3.2615930 secs

OutOfMemoryError

As you can see - I'm only using 132 MB after the first
GC which leaves plenty Runtime.freeMemory()
etc. returns similar results..

Does anybody have any ideas? I don't even know where to look
next... It doesn't look like a profiler would help me here
since I don't have tons of objects filling up my memory.

Subject: [OT] Lightweight helper libraries for reporting?


Does anyone know of any good libraries for collecting report data?

To be clear -- I'm not interested in a full-scale reporting library
like JasperReports.  I've looked at it, and while it looks cool, I
have some specific requirements it doesn't serve.  I've also looked
at the Display tag library, and while it has its good and bad opints,
it's basically not what I need.

What I'm looking for is something into which I can throw a bunch of
beans of a common type and then ask it to do things like grouping,
group totals, grand totals, and the like.  Basically, the model of a
report data set, independent of how it is populated or how it would
be displayed.

Have you seen my library?

Thanks in advance,
Joe

RE: problem with String[] [SOLVED] ? was hibernate the issue

[David G Friedman]

I'd like to know what your Hibernate problem was
since I'm using hibernate and never had a problem
with it saving data, unless I had the wrong
information in the object, causing a Hibernate
Exception, which I caught.

Do you have "show_sql=true" in your hibernate.properties
or hibernate.cfg.xml file?

It shows me what the SQL statement is when it is performed,
such as:

Hibernate: select login0_.vendorid as vendorid, login0_.Login as Login,
login0_.Password as Password, login0_.type as type from company login0_
where (login0_.Login=? )

I'm also using transaction syntax like so:

SessionFactory sf = // however you initialize it, I use
// the hibernate Struts pluging from hibernate.org
Session sess = sf.openSession();
Transaction tx = sess.beginTransaction();
// do something
tx.commit()
etc... ;

I had plenty of Hibernate errors when I started
until I started using the SchemaExport and
hbm2ddl classes to create my relevant objects.

Regards,
David

I'm guessing at the moment that hibernate is behind some of this. How? I
don't know because in the log files, hibernate is saying that its
storing data into the database but, when the table is checked, data has
not been entered. Another thing, sometimes it stores the data into the
table and sometimes it does not. Weird. I guess some misconfig, but at
the moment back to hand coding SQL :-(

RE: ApplicationResources.properties

[David G Friedman]

Thanks for spelling it out for me, it helped
find the problem.  Somehow it was sitting under 

WEB-INF/classes/java/resources/application.properties

instead of 

WEB-INF/classes/resources/application.properties

Talk about a spooky Eclipse changes.  I refactored
a few things when I did the hibernate changes I
mentioned but I'm pretty sure I didn't refactor 
the "application.resources" file, though it seems
Eclipse took that liberty (yes, I know I can't
blame Eclipse, just my mistyping/fat-fingering).

It's Flash, but it's small, fast, and responsive. Love to get my hands on

it's tight.

RE: DisplayTag library

[David G Friedman]

Tim,

I know what you mean.  Are you talking version 
0.8.5 or 1.0-b1?  The 0.8.5 are offically:
http://edhill.its.uiowa.edu/display 

The 1.0-b1 are:
http://displaytag.sourceforge.net/

With downloads that don't seem to include
pre-built (i.e. html, just xml) javadocs.
I downloaded them a few days ago but haven't
got to them yet.  The api docs are:
http://displaytag.sourceforge.net/apidocs/
And have a class org.displaytag.decorator
which contains the decorator classes.

That beta code also lists live examples at:
http://www.displaytag.org/displaytag-1.0-b1-examples/index.jsp

David

Thanks, Matt. But that still leaves the question of "ColumnDecorator". The
"example-decorator.jsp" page shows what a decorator can do and refers me to
the Javadoc tor TableDecorator, then mentions that ColumnDecorator exists.
But where is the Javadoc for the Decorator classes?

Subject: URGENT - not finding applications.properties
Importance: High


Hi;

I have had struts working fine in one web application. I then added a second
web application - in it's own directory with it's own struts files, web.xml
file, etc.

Now when I run the new application (which gets loaded first) finds it's
application.properties but the second application cannot find it's
application.properties.

My web.xml is:

...
  
   application
   resources.application
  
...

thanks - dave

RE: DisplayTag library

[David G Friedman]

Tim,

That class documentaiton reads that you should implement the new
ColumnDecorator interface on your object.  I think that's convenient, to
keep the decorator in your class object.

Excellent, there they are. Hmm...ColumnDecorator has one constructor, which
is deprecated, and one method which is also deprecated. That doesn't leave
much! I guess I could get along without a constructor, but if I don't use
the "decorate" method, there's not much point to the class! I guess I'll
have to use it in spite of the deprecation.

RE: DisplayTags

[David G Friedman]

Tim,

The StringEscapeuytils class is in the
commons-lang-2.0.jar included under the
displaytag-1.0-b1-examples.war in the
displaytag-1.0-b1-bin.zip download, if
you're using the 1.0-b1 release. :)

One more question as I get closer to getting this to run. I've got things
arranged now, and am trying to get a  tag to run. I'm
getting an error saying that it can't find
org/apache/commons/lang/StringEscapeUtils. And, sure enough, in my
commons-lang.jar file - which came with Struts 1.1 - there is no such class.


Looking for a newer commons-lang.jar at apache.org gives no joy, they have
only the "ramping up" page for the commons project.

What do I need to do?

RE: can not get forward page in an action

[David G Friedman]

You are seem to be trying to access Struts actions
and tiles in a few incorrect ways.

You are using a few struts tags incorrectly.
When you use the "html" tags, you normally
need to go through an action first so it can
setup the ActionForm automatically.  Otherwise,
you'll probably have a null pointer exception
because the ActionForm (unless you put it in
the session scope during a previous request)
won't exist.

When you use tiles in a JSP, unless you add
the definition (or import it) into the JSP,
you can only use the JSP from within the
Struts as it requires the TilesRequestProcessor.

Your taglib import lines in your JSP's are
nonstandard.  Usually, the web.xml section
"taglib-uri" is used as the "uri=..." line
at the top of your JSPs, not the section you
have used which appears to be the section
"taglib-location".

That should get you over the hump, assuming
you put the files in the appropriate places:
1) /
2) /WEB-INF
3) /WEB-INF/classes

I can't use the files you gave me to find any
other errors because I don't have your
com.ipedo.* classes to use or re-Byte-Compile
your java classes.

Lastly, I can't see what Richard is talking
about because the Zip file you included
shows you spelled 'String target = "success"
the same way you put it in your action's
forward.

David Friedman

Thanks for answering this question.  This is my first

I check the log already, I did not see any errors

Not sure you can see my attached files.  but when I
try to access sucesstilepage.jsp by itself, I did get

RE: can not get forward page in an action

[David G Friedman]

You list Plug-Ins so you must be using Struts 1.1
so here are the other problems:

1. Your "web.xml" needs to use the servlet-class:
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet

2. The function name automatically called is "execute"
not "service".  So, not finding an "execute" in your
TestAction class, it uses the default "execute" which
does nothing, hence the blank page.

3. Relating to #2 above, the "execute" function should
be declared properly and is missing the "throws ..."
at the end of the declaration (i.e. after the
"...(mapping, form request, response) ADD_HERE {"

4. You need to fix where you put "html" and "tiles"
in your sucesstilepage.jsp because you seem to accidentally
invoke the html tags using the prefix "tiles" and the
tiles as the prefix "html".  (Thus causing a big JSP
explosion)

5. TestForm is an ActionForm and cannot have a
 tag.  Those are for dynaforms only.


Your tiles-defs references work, but, technically,
you spelled the jsp names and the names in the tiles-defs.xml
page with success having one "c" when it should have two.


Email me privately if you need me to zip that up and
send it to you for comparison if the instructions are
missing anything.

David

Thanks, David.

I did put my file in the appropriate place.  I aggree
with you in lots of points.

I actually did not retieve the form after the forward
action, I just want a button there to click an forward
an action to a jsp pages just contain a word
'successful'.

I make some changes according to your advice:
change the taglib by using 'uri=...', import the
attributes in the jsp file. I got the same thing.

The com.ipedo  import is not useful for this
class.  sorry about that.  You can delete that.  I
wrote a longer action class, but it doesn't work for
me.  I delete most of the part of action class but
forgot the import part.

I attached a new zip for you to try.

Thanks a lot.

RE: Versioning Problem?

[David G Friedman]

Do you have a file "WEB-INF/classes/ApplicationResources" ?
According to the name you put in your struts-config.xml file,
that is where it should be. If it were "resources.ApplicationResources"
then it would be in "WEB-INF/classes/resources/ApplicationResources".

Also, you program might not work if you have a struts config
file named "Struct-config.xml".   Was that typo or is that how
you have it described in your web.xml file?

David

RE: How to use tiles for Error Pages?

Eric,

If the page isn't accessed through a struts action, you need to insert the
tiles definition before your tiles:insert commands like so:

Subject: How to use tiles for Error Pages?


I've been able to use tiles for most of my pages, but how can I use it for
an error page, like 404.jsp or 500.jsp?  For my normal pages, I've declared
them in my tiles-config.xml and then the JSP is quite simple, and that is
all working fine.  Since I need to define my error pages in my web.xml, that
has no knowledge of tiles or even struts, so the error page must be complete
without a tiles definition.  How can I specify in the actually JSP to
reference/extends the track.default definition?
  

  
  
  
  
  

  

I tried a 404.jsp like this:
<%@ page language="java"%>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-tiles.tld" prefix="tiles" %>


  
  
404
  


But I'm getting this Exception:
  
<[WebAppServletContext(244212,track,/track)] Root cause of ServletException
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Error - Tag Insert : No value defined for
bean 'track.default' with property 'null' in scope 'request'.

at
org.apache.struts.taglib.tiles.InsertTag.doStartTag(InsertTag.java:451)
at jsp_servlet.__404._jspService(__404.java:106)

I'm confused as where to look next.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
