Re: Solved: RE: /do/do/AmIGoingCrazy? Help needed with /do/actionname

[Ted Husted]

When the URL for the action is resolved, it wants to insert the prefix
for you. It sounds like that for some reason, it did not see that the
prefix was already there, and tried to insert it again. 

The idea is that you should be able to change the prefix (or suffix)
without touching the JSP's. So, it does not need to be expressed in the
html:form tag.

Some people use 

path="/something.do"

but that's obsolete, and really should be deprectated. 

path="/something"

should work regardless of what is used for the prefix or suffic.

You "do" need to put the full URI in the ActionForward, since in that
context it doesn't know whether you want to link to 

/this

or 

/do/this

Both of which are potentially valid. 

If you changed the suffix or prefix, you would also have to change them
in the Struts config (but not in the JSPs).

Solved: RE: /do/do/AmIGoingCrazy? Help needed with /do/actionname

[wbchmura]

Well, I eventually hit on the correct permutation of all the codes:

for /do/* as an action servelet mapping:

My Global forwards:


Action mappings:


In my forms they go in as:



I'm just stating it here so it is archived and someone else can find it 
in there in the future.

I still dont know where the /do/do were coming from.

Hello,

RRRHH  - there now I feel better.

I am trying to go back into my first attempt at struts and follow some 
of the recommendations of the husted.com catalog - specifically 
implementing the /do/actionname

I am completely confused on what goes where for what... Let me be more 
specific:

(Q1) My Global mappings and my actions look like this... Is this 
correct?


  
  
 
  
 
 
 
  


(Q2) I have defined a bunch of action mappings that are giving me grief. 

 I have my logon.jsp in the root and the rest under the WEB-INF/jsp 
directory.  What path should the form on my login.jsp have for an 
action?  No matter what combination I try it submits to /do/do/login 
which causes problems.

  
  

   





   






(Q3) In my forwards above, should I need to do /logon or can I just do 
logon?  Things are broken all over, so when one part seems to work, 
another part stops.


THANKS!
